Evening Elegance
I was hoarding four shades of metallic gold delicas for over a year before I decided what to make with them. When I paired the delicates with the 24k gold lined crystal the idea sparked. I also made a strung companion bracelet of the gold lined crystals and Swarovski 4mm topaz rounds. Gold is the material of choice for timeless elegance and sophistication.
