wire and pearl necklace

 sometimes a simple idea , multiplied , can make something beautiful
all it took was some inspiration at the john bead outlet store
(vintage pearls on sale)
some 26 gauge wire and a crochet hook
creating  over 30 strands measuring 12-15 inches in length
all together i'm happy with the finished necklace
 



also found at the outlet (below)
pre- knotted pearls  (only .75 cents each) with metal crimps on each end
in a few minutes , using a metal choker and pliers,
I finished this necklace and matching earrings for under $10
