Of Sand and Surf

by: Lee Metsalo

Ifyou could capture a walk along a tropical beach in a necklace, would this be it? Sparkling waters in various shades of blue. A few sand dollars. A few marine plants or glimpses of marine critters. And silver sand glinting in the sun.

This is a simple necklace where each beaded component is closed with wrapped loops, and then linked together with the jump rings. The join of the two strands is linked with two jump rings for a bit of added durability. Make this as many strands, or as long or short as you like!

Tools used: two pairs of flat pliers, round pliers, wire cutters
