Okay, this first necklace is a gift for my sister.  I chose this pendant because her middle name is 'Rose'.  Hope she likes it.

This one was my first ever netted piece.

and this light pink piece I bought at a community sale.  I thought about taking it apart but decided not to.

Grace, netting is so feminine......... I love the look of it. I like the one  you did for  your sister, nice thought on your part to include a rose. Good sister. And the red and black one with stars in the fringe is innovative. I have never seen stars used like that for fringe. Lastly, over the years I too have purchased items that I clearly planned to bring home and take apart..........they are still in original form. After years of selling vintage costume jewelry I have a real "thing" about taking items apart. This comes from seeing truly valuable pieces of costume that a person has mutilated to make something else out of, and thereby taking a simple looking pin that would be worth hundreds of dollars and removing all value from it. Nice work.......... Donna

Grace, these are both lovely!  I love the way you did the neckline.

Thank you Donna & KipperCat for your nice comments

I guess I should really think twice before taking apart pieces I come across

I started with a long enough strip of crossweave for the neckline and added the netting onto that.

The netted jewelry are really very beautiful, but it seems that it is hard for me to make, I want to learn to make it.
