Today’s project from my Rivoli Beadwork book is my ‘Laura Necklace ‘.

This stunning and classics design combines Swarovski pearls & crystals and a simple change of colour will have a dramatic effect!

This project appears in the ‘Pearls’ chapter of the book and uses my ‘RAW Pearls’ technique to bezel Rivolis using seed beads and Swarovski Crystal Pearls for an ornate look.

The Christmas 2018 Secret Beadalong is nearly done!

The ‘back’ of the main ornament is all beaded waiting to be finished tomorrow and hung on the tree.

I was worried about matching last year’s beautiful ornament but as this one (and it’s 3 variations) comes together and I get to see all the wonderful colour variations everyone has done I’m starting to breathe a sight of relief!
