new necklaces

This week's project was putting together some new necklaces which will be in my etsy shop shortly. The majority of my pieces are combinations of recycled bracelets, earrings, pins, necklaces, bits of chain, etc. Working with a finite set of supplies (colors, shapes, quantities) challenges me by it's innate limitations. Sometimes things just seem to work perfectly together. But other times I have to tuck away a few special beads or a great old pin, saving them until I find their as yet unknown complement.
