Hemp and Glass Choker

I made this choker for my son Will. I found this beautiful glass piece on a vacation in Oregon a couple of years ago and I've noticed him admire it a couple of times, so I found some variegated black and white hemp and made a choker for him. It looks kind of sparkly in the photo, but it is very natural looking IRL.

WOW, very nice!
Did you have to put a hole into
the glass piece or was it there?

Rachelle--there's a reason I put you down as one of my favorite artists. You never cease to amaze me with your talents, no matter what the materials used. Awesome necklace!

Wow! You guys humble me! Such wonderful things to say and on a day when I'm so bummed. I'm alternating between crying and swearing.

The glass piece was purchased from a street artist in Charleston, Oregon, a tiny little coastal town at the tip of Coos Bay. And it already had the hole in it. I actually bought it for myself, but I've noticed that my son really likes it, so I decided to try and make something masculine looking for him. It's really difficult to do that, I've found out. I like to embellish!!!!
