Queen Anne's Lace Fiber Necklace


Several people have suggested that I make necklaces based on my embroidery designs and this is my first attempt. I seem to be enamored with Queen Anne's Lace at the moment!

The necklace is 18" in length, so for many people it would fit like a choker. The pendant is approximately 2" x 2". It's very soft against the neckline. I used an old crochet technique that my mom taught me to make the "chain" tube. I added small crochet circles with glass bead embellishments and used buttons to attach the pendent. By using buttons and a neutral "chain" I have made this so that pendents can be interchanged. This necklace and my bracelets make a nice alternative to jewelry if you happen to have allergic reactions to metals.

You can find this necklace along with my bracelets and rings in my Etsy shop.

It is lovely!

I was going to suggest putting that design on bags but I see that you already have a section in your shop for bags and purses.

Great idea! I'm a necklace person and don't wear a lot of bracelets. This is definitely help you attract a different pool of clientele. Great job!

I love this! How clever to make them interchangeable as well! The way the red plays against the neutral colors is perfection...

Queen annes lace is so beautiful...too bad it's considered a weed by this generation (and thank you to the victorians that brought it over from England!) When I see them growing in my garden, I leave it there!

Beautiful piece!

I was just thinking of you today. Back from vacation and missing my blogger friends.

I absolutely love the necklace. It's the perfect addition to your shop. Can't wait to see more!
