They are all structurally sound - these babies are not hollow. They are built up layer by layer - you can't really SEE the beads woven in the center, but they are there...and that is what makes the piece strong and able to hold its shape. Incredibly unique and fun!Because I really wanted the shape to be the total eye catcher, I finished the necklace off by stringing the shape on illusion cord - so that it appears to be a pendant "floating" on your neck.

Peaches and Cream measures 18" (45.8cm) from end to end, and the rivoli pendant measures 3/4" (19mm) across. The width of the neckband is 3/8" (9.5mm).The clasp is a very important part of a design...it can make an otherwise beautiful creation cheap and flimsy.

Use them to hide your "rough spots", or just to add some color to your cranium. Works with real dreadlocks, synthetic dreadlocks (hair falls), and can even be worn in braids.To wear your dreadlock bead: Find the dread that would be the best fit, slide the bead up, twisting as you go. The bead should fit snugly over your dread, staying in place on its own. If it is loose find another dreadlock to decorate.To wear with normal braided hair: Separate hair and begin to braid as normal. When you reach the location of where you would like the bead to be visible, slide bead on to one of the three sections of hair, twisting as you go (you may want to clip the other 2 sections together while you are doing this so they don't come undone). Continue to braid hair, securing the end. The bead will be securely in place until you undo your hair.

Compliments guaranteed! This freeform bracelet consists of peyote, herringbone, and netting techniques for a layered look. If you're looking for something that NO ONE else will have, look no further. Take a look at those blues! I used about 16 different colors for this beautiful bracelet, including delica seed beads, toho seed beads, swarovski crystals, bugle beads, and a few glass beads. A beaded toggle clasp blends seamlessly into the design like no premade clasp can. The focal cabochon is an abalone/paula shell, encased in woven seed beads.
