Project Map

Project and Sample by Janice Parsons

A bend in the river, a turn in the road...where will your creativity take you next? We’re never quite sure...how will the next bead, the next color palette, the next idea inspire us? Janice took one look at these new Table Cut Rectangles and Spindles and knew there was a float necklace in their future. Adding chain and briolettes and a big, bold clasp...this necklace takes our breath away.

There are five lengths of Soft Flex and two lengths of chain (not including the extender chain for the clasp) making up this necklace. Each strand of Soft Flex was cut to 24” in length. The total length of the necklace can range from 16-20” PLUS the added length of the clasp, roller beads, and extender chain.
Janice kept the design easy by using only one style of bead on each strand. It looks very mixed, but look closely: each strand of Soft Flex has only one ingredient. Spacing the beads on the Soft Flex is a personal choice: you do you!

This design is adaptable to wearing the clasp and dangle in the back or as the focal in the front. If you have extra beads you could also use them as dangles on the extender chain, or make yourself some simple wire earrings to match!
