Nature Necklace - with inspiration from Creative Art, stage 2

Hello!

When I read the rules of Mixed Media & Art second stage "Crystal Beauty", 
my mind immediately though of some kind of jewelry.
This challenge is about the creative process and to challenge yourself.
Jewelry making is not what I do, but I though - why not try!


http://mixedmediaandart.blogspot.se/2017/10/stage-2-crystal-beauty-joint-project.html

The rules;
 In your work there should be ONE transparent element NOT from scrapbooking and one more obligatory element of this stage is CIRCLES.

This is what I came up with, after making my first pendants ever!
I took a piece of glass that I found on the beach and used wire to make it into a pendant.
I made 2 other pendants from other beach findings and some beads in colours that I like.

My piece of glass is my transparent element, and there are plenty of cirkles used on this necklace.







I really like my necklace :)

Thanks for stopping by today, and hope to see you soon again!
