Wedding Jewelry

A friend of mine is getting married in August and wanted some jewelry for her bridesmaids. Mind you-- she has seven. She was looking for gifts for them and because she has so many, it was difficult to find anything that was affordable to give to each of them. So I took on the task of making some necklaces and earrings for the girls. The dresses are red so we decided that it would be best to go with clear AB crystals (iridescent finish) so that the jewelry can pick up the color. The good thing about going with clear crystals is that the recipient can wear the jewelry anytime and with anything even after the wedding. I decided to also make each necklace sightly different-- starting with the chain, number of crystals within the chain, and the pendant. All of the necklaces were similar in that they had a clasp with an extender so that if they wanted to make the necklace longer for a different outfit, they could do so by putting it on the last ring.

Information on the necklaces: (all approximate)

length: 16 in.
pendant: 1-1 1/2 in.
extender: 2 in.
# of crystals on pendant: 14-16 various sizes ranging from 3mm- 6mm AB clear crystals
