This is one of my latest everyday wear necklaces. I originally made it as one of the drops for a necklace with multiple pendants, but I wanted a simpler, more casual version. I've been wearing it pretty much nonstop for the last couple of weeks!
The frame is a hematite Wrapper with matching chain and gunmetal Artistic Wire from Beadalon, along with beads and pearls from SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS. This technique is super simple but it has great results. More wire ideas are coming soon in my new book, Live Wire Jewelry, which will be released later this month!
I took this picture during the most recent Beads, Baubles & Jewels taping to honor the stuff that got me through the week. It seems like a fitting materials list for the coming year, too! There's some hair goo, delicious tea, throat spray, trail mix and a C47 (that's the TV-world term for a clothespin).

I love this necklace!! What kind of chain did you use? I'm mostly a bracelet/earring making girl, but I just might start making pendants and necklaces now. :-)
Julianna - true, true! Can't wait to see you and your big hair in Anaheim.
Julia - yes, give it a try! I used elongated curb chain from Beadalon. It's hematite color. I love that dark gray look!
