string your own stones

Since the colours i chose for my bridesmaids weren't really a standard combination it was proving difficult to get jewellery to match...so we made our own. We bought a bunch of mixed stones in the colour palette i wanted and set to work stringing them all quasi-randomly together. This allowed us to add a couple of little marine-themed charms and mini shells etc so as to tie in with the sea-theme.
I had the very welcome assistance of poog from Gingerbelle Jewellery who did a fabulous job advising me and helping to make the necklaces. It just added a lot to the fun of the day that we were able to be so involved in making the pieces.
