Here's a closeup of the beads in the necklace for anyone who's interested :) They are Faux Boro, this is done using soft glass that reacts to create a borosilicate-like look - I love the colours that come out in these beads!
Here's my bead crochet necklace that I made for my daughter's birthday. My wirewrapping skills are primitive to say the least, but it was a bead she had mentioned that she liked and it can come off the necklace easily. I have to say the crochet is very addictive and something that can be done any time anywhere which is nice!
