Making a necklace from a bracelet

[Erika Davis]

My sister had been looking for a necklace and matching bracelte but could'nt find what she wanted. She managed to find a pack of two bracelets but no necklace to match. She showed me the bracelets and I told her I could easily make her a necklace from the spare bracelet.

So off I went to raid my bead stash, to find some coordinating beads. The original bracelet was made from the pandora style, metal hole beads. I have added some extra Czech glass beads, metal beads and chain for the necklace. A metal componenet was used for the pendant, from which I have hung glass beads and some matal leaves.

She was really pleased with the result and now has her matching set.

Thanks Lynn, She does like it. She's a bit of a hippy chick so it suits her style.
