Bead Soup Party Necklace, Autumn Angel 2 in 1 Necklace

A real statement 2 in 1 Autumn Fairy -- My Bead Soup party Necklace

Unfortunately I had to wait weeks and weeks for my beautiful beads from Gillygembeads and then weeks and weeks when it finally got to me,none of the Gillys fault I have to add.

In my parcel, the Angel was already made that gilly sent me,I had lovely Semi precious Stone chips,the 4 flower connectors the Gold plated hearts and some tiny seed beads, you can see these on the loop of the angel.

I decided to hand wire wrap with gold wire that I had aged, I added 24K Gold plated beads and finally I loosely wrapped with pure Copper entwined with 24K Gold plated beads.
I hung the fairy on the heart which I aged, with a small copper Key ring attachment, so she can be removed, if you wanted to wear the necklace part on its own.

This has mixed Semi precious stone chips,again I hand wire wrapped gold wire and aged it.
Then as before I loosely wrapped Pure Copper entwined with the lovely 24K gold beads
I made a Pure copper hook and lightly hammered it and added the tiny gold plated heart,

I loved making her, The Autumn Fairy is a real statement piece and of course she can be easily removed to leave the Necklace on it's own.
I hope you like what I have made Gilly, thank you I had great fun making her.
