Getting started

What started off as a small interest in jewelry has now become a full blow obsession of mine. It started with my friend Julie at work (I do have a day job!). She had started making jewelry about a year before she got me into it. At the time, I didn't quite understand the obsession. But one day she brought in these freshwater pearls and silver skull beads, and i was hooked! See below for the lovely results of my first piece of jewelry. It's still my favorite necklace, although I don't think I could restring pearls again without Julie's help if my life depended on it! ha ha ha. I love how the classic pearls contrast with the silver skulls.
