Diana Dineva and her Maria Jewelry Set...

I've had this lovely piece (click on it) made for a while but couldn't get a good photo of it. It is a choker. This tutorial is Diana's Maria Jewelry Set and was in Perlen Poesie Magazine, 35 2018. Her Etsy shop is GariaBijouxHandMade. Takes a lot of beads, is quite repetitive, but what isn't in the beading world.

She does a lot with the arco par puca beads. The screen shots below (click) are taken from her Etsy shop...




This is her Agate Necklace, look hoe she did here with the arco bead, I love this one!!!
