Bugle bead necklace

This is a necklace that I remade. A couple of years ago, I had some bugle beads and I was experimenting with them. I strung them with seed beads and then tripled the strand, running the thread through every 3rd seed bead. I liked the look, so I added some larger round beads to the strand.

Two years later, I took it all apart. I had made it with freshwater pearls, but I decided I didn't like it. So, I looked for some other kind of bead to use, and found some green glass beads that were accented with metal.

I like this necklace better.
