pretty cool result. I've used a similar method using copper wire and beads, it's pretty cool how you can bend the necklace to fit around the contours of your clavicle. I like the yard that you've used in yours, some solid earth tones. I love how simple it is!

What a neat idea! I really like the end result, too. I'd love to do one in blue and green.
