The Beauty (and ease!) of Chain

If you are looking for a fun and relatively simple beading project — one that’s sure to be both pretty and eye-catching, why not consider the versatility of chain paired with beads?

You can pick up silver, gold chain in various lengths from your favorite craft store. It’s usually not very expensive, and if you get a chain that’s several feet long, you can create quite a few beautiful projects.

I made this 102cm long Fancy Link Silver Plated Chain Rope Necklace is loaded with a variety of Murano, Czech Fire Polished Bicone’s, Lampwork,  Acrylic, Semi-Precious Chips, Glass, Pearl Foil and Miyuki beads. It is also embellished with Bali and Filigree Bead Spacers as well as various Silver Findings  The Chain has no Clasp and can be worn separately or paired with other necklaces. 

“SERENITY” DRAGONFLY NECKLACE & EARRING SET

Why do people like dragonflies? ….They seem a little magical to me.

Serenity Dragonfly Necklace

A beautiful combination of 10mm Metallic Brown Faux Pearls, 8mm Cerise Pink and Lime Green Clear Glass Rounds with Copper Bali Bead Caps.

They are all swept together towards a 25x18mm White with Green Swirl and Pink Flower Design Murano Style with a Plated Insert Core Bead, which I attached as the “Focal” with Copper Oval Chain and set with a Vintage Copper Dragonfly on either side. 

I furthermore formed a loop  encasing the focal with Green and Pink Bicones, Copper Filigree Rounds and centered with a tiny Copper Butterfly.


The Necklace is neatly completed with a Vintage Copper Rose Design Toggle Clasp.


The earrings have a  dazzling cascade of an earthy mixture of Shades of Brown Pony Beads, Carnelian Semi Precious Stone Chips, 8mm Amber Multi-faceted Swarovski Crystals and 10mm Metallic Brown Faux Pearl Rounds.

Mesmerizing in motion,  are Vintage Dragonfly Findings swinging freely  from the Gold Plated French Ear Wires. 

Delicate and beautiful, this gorgeous Dragonfly Necklace and Earring Set brings a bit of fantasy and romance to brighten your day.

Simple enough for every day wear yet beautiful enough for a special night out.

Length of Necklace including Toggle Clasp – 56cm
