So we decided to make a series of necklaces for her daughters and granddaughters. Eight in total. It took me a while to get going which isn't unusual, but I love what the results were. I made each necklace a different colour and mostly different styles. Because there were nineteen beads and I had to divide them into eight, some necklace have three of the original beads while others have only two.

My favorite was the amythist one. Followed closely by the silver multistranded one. Gorgeous!
Stopping by from Creative bloggers! Watch for your post soon!
I love what you did by dividing the beads, and how different each necklace turned out.
Truly terrific!

wow! I love that you got so many new necklaces out of that!
What a wonderful family keepsake! It ties everyone together, yet allows everyone individuality. Beautiful!
I love how you have recreated the original necklace to create all those gorgeous pieces.
It's hard to pick a favourite - but I do like Purple Velvet & Light Amethyst.

Love what you did with that one necklace! I have to say my favorite is the amethyst!
I really love what you did with the orginal necklace, and the fact that these will be worn by members of the same family. Very special!
