I thought this information would be useful to many

Collar necklaces lie snugly around the middle of the neck. Great for evening wear. Perfect for off the shoulder and v-neck necklines
• Choker (14-16 inches) 36-40cm
A 14-16 inch choker falls perfectly around the base of the neck. Perfect for any time of day and occasion. Great for a child's necklace
• Princess (17-19 inches) 43-48cm
The princess necklace is best suited for crew and high necklines, falling just below the throat. Perfect length for both daytime and evening wear. Compliments a crew neck and higher necklines or wear as a contrast to low necklines.
• Matinee (20-24 inches) 51-61cm
Longer than the princess necklace, and slightly shorter than an opera length, a 20-24 inch matinee necklace is for casual or business dress. Compliments a higher neckline
• Opera (28-34 inches) 71-86cm
Ranging from 28-34 inches, the opera necklace is the longest of all lengths. Wear it as a single or double strand. Ideal for classic or casual attire. Works with both high or crew necklines

Crystal Bouquet

I've now finished the crystal bouquet I was making. It was a lot of work with the super long stems that then had to be bent upwards. But I think it looks great.

I've made it with 200 stems, but even more would be great.

Latest Beaded Wedding Bouquet

This is the arrangement I came up with after making beaded flowers for a customer to add to her wedding bouquet. In the end she used all of my beaded flowers and some other crystals and things. It was an amazing arrangement, and I'll post a blog about that another time.

I've used almost all the same flowers and stems I made for her arrangement, and there are nearly 60 stems all up in this arrangement. I've used tulle in the arrangement, for the collar, and for the handle. I've then done a clever wrapping technique with satin ribbon around the handle.
