I’m basically a shimmery sparkly kind of gal, but surprisingly am loving the more rustic look of this necklace. I usually work with sterling silver, but the warmth of brass is perfect for fall designs. Still need to redo a couple of the bead links as the wraps are uneven or maybe I should leave them as it adds to the rustic feel? The link problem is the result of getting the feel for the wire, which is a little stiffer than dead soft sterling wire.

    Thanks Cindy! I really love fall colors, but we seem to be skipping fall and heading straight into winter here. :(

    Gorgeous necklace, Chris! I love the rustic-look and feel of this necklace. I agree that antiqued bronze, and copper, are great metals for fall.
