ta-da...

whew, I decided to make a necklace for a friend for Christmas, using all the broken bits of jewerly I have in my stash....its not as easy as I thought...hahaha, I have fat fingers, I kept dropping things...


I ended up making two, since I had enough parts...




all the pieces are from vintage jewelry, and vintage crystal and a gold cross, that I think is 14K, the chain it was on said 14K, but I can't find markings on the cross itself.
I will be listing this one in my shoppe...
big claps for all you jewerly artists!!!!
