Thread: Necklaces made to match costumes!

I'm almost done with my gold and blue airport refurb and I am now looking at necklace designs for this. I am also a jewelry designer so this isn't out of my norm. I've made necklaces to match costumes before, but am coming up with no ideas here.

I know that Invoke the Goddess and Bella usually include necklaces with their costumes. I'd love to see some pics of those in addition to other necklaces that are made to match.

that's so cool!

I'll try to get a picture of mine up soon. It's made just like the straps of the bra are... covered in fabric with the same beadwork she uses on the straps... mine's in a v-shape. at the point of the v is a large ab-stone and a ton of long vertical fringe.

Wow, that looks like a lot of work, but you are doing a FINE job!

Twisted strands of chunky blue and gold beads?

Good idea. Do you think I should include rhinestones?

If I'm reading your pictures correctly, you have prong-set rhinestones trimming and mixed into your beadwork. I'm not sure I would go that route--maybe just some faceted round or bicone crystal beads in AB finish would round out the look?

love the chunky beading! What about a small "bib" style necklace, like the kind that are trendy right now?
