Woven necklaces

I just love making these necklaces. The thread and the needles are thinner than human hair and I have to procure the purest beeswax, but it's worth the effort.

The Beaded Lace
		WN1. The beaded lace! This stuff can really get out of control, and if woven too thick or long will actually stand up on its own!
The slender collars
		WN2. These are simple chains of beads, some interspersed with larger faceted beads and some with simple seed beads. Often I make them about 17 inches, but sometimes I crank out several feet to wear layered for a thick, ropey look.
The Gemstone Collars
		WN3. The Gemstone collars. This is a modification of the Xs design, with the beadwork toned down to show off the gem stones.
The X's
		WN4. The X's! This is a popular design at colleges. It rides high on the neck, as is the fashion now, and the open spaces make it an economical design.
The Egyptian Weave
		WN5. Another design intended for an Egyptian dancer. This one is inspired directly by ancient Egyptian jewelry technique.
The Hearts!
		WN6. The most luscious of all the designs, the beaded hearts! This style feels wonderful around the neck, the woven beads are soft with an almost living texture. This style works with almost any color combination.
Sets
		WN7. Matched sets are available for most designs, so all your parts can sparkle together!
