Not Pinterest ideas this time, just from a flyer in Hobby Lobby, actually. They've got all the colored chains and findings, like the mottled black chain I showed in a necklace last week. This time, I was playing with some bright teal chain and some black and white chain as my focuses, and these are the necklaces I ended up with. First, though, here's the inspiration flyer, if you've got a Hobby Lobby near you and are curious.
The first one is using the black and white chain.
You can see the accent a little more clearly in this picture. The small black beads are actually beaded headpins (the bead is part of the pin itself). The red beads, both sizes, were all on a string from Wal-Mart's craft section.
The other one is based off one of the ones on the cover of the flyer. I really liked the teal chain (and I've got cute flats that match!) and it just seems so much brighter with the black chain and accents than used on its own. I added a third strand in the necklace, as I had the chain to use. I don't wear bracelets enough to need to save it for a matching bracelet, so would rather use the chain here.
The black beads are flanked (for lack of a better term) by small teal beads I had in my stash. The black beads, chain, pins and clasp were all in my stash too.
So, there you go. Nothing crazy, extraordinary about either of them, other than that I think they're pretty and wanted to share :)
