The 3rd Challenged for Michaels and it seems to be the Winter Edition. I named my piece due to my picture below (previous post). It took me so long to finally get this piece made. I started with actually making a double chain assemble but did not like it. The pendant did not quite turn out as I had planned...PRACTICE need more PREACTICE but nevertheless I'm happy with the end result. I know what to do next time.
The pendant is a cut out from the my previous post. I added the red czech to reflect the frozen berries and the rock (quartz) crystal I just wanted to add it. I substituted the faceted MOP bead with the open black MOP beads. I could find the pearl (went to two Michaels and called three).
I had a ton of fun making this piece. I gotta work on the pics too!

Iced Berries! Love it. It reminds me of a lipstick that I used to wear called "Cherries in the Snow". The red combined with the wintry shades is such a pretty combination.
What a lovely necklace! I know it's a bummer to not be able to find all the beads. I was having near panic attacks while searching for the MOP myself (it was hidden!)
Thanks for sharing your creation!
Iced berries, I love that take on winter. Your focal is beautiful, and you really combined some beautiful color and textures!
Can't believe we had the same thought of doubling the chain links. I love the pendant your made and the name is great!

HI Serena!
This looks great! A wonderful and unique take on the same beads, gotta love it!
I do hope you play along for the next one!
Lovely! I'm liking the bright blue that the pendant focal adds to the design. :)
Thanks to you all for the comments. You know I was so concern about capturing the red of berries that I didn't even pay attention to the blue in the pendant.
Lorelei thanks for creating this challenge, it has been a blast. I will surely participate in the next one.
Great photo made from the iced branch photo. Lovely necklace. Love that deep red color too.
Very nice! I love your focal! It looks great in your design!
