Thoroughly Modern Millie
I have a beading book that I bought about two weeks ago for ideas and knowledge of the trade called The Impatient Beader. In that book, there is a necklace with three layers called "Bahama Mama". When I first read the book, I made a connection to a story that my grandpa and his lady friend, Millie, told us. They often go on vacation to the Caribbean where Millie has a time share and often eat at a bar/restaurant called "the Bahama Mama". So I decided to make a necklace for Millie inspired by the original one in the book.
Materials:
clear Stretch Magic string (three 16 inch strands)
6 gold crimp bead tubes
gold toggle clasp
7 10mm silver "oriental" beads
11 10mm blue "oriental" beads
8 10mm red "oriental" beads
several hundred robins egg blue 5mm beads
several hundred orange 5mm beads
several hundred blue 5mm beads
Millie will tresure this necklace.
