Swarovski Splurge

I spent all of last evening assembling some Swarovski jewelry that I bought components for.  First I finished up this necklace, Gulf Stream, which I got from Artbeads.  This is a variation of another necklace that I recently made, Nouveau Navettes.  This version did away with the extra length of chain, and it is all Swarovski beads.  I do like it, but it is a lot heavier.
List of Components:
Swarovski 13304 Rhodium-Plated Navette Charm with Crystal (13304-RCRY7, qty 16)
Swarovski 5810 10mm Round Pearl Turquoise (5810-TRQ10, qty 16)
Swarovski 5000 8mm Faceted Round Sapphire (5000-SAP8, qty 16)
Swarovski 5028 6mm Crystal Globe Bead Peridot (5028-PER6, qty 16)
Antique Silver-Plated Brass Curb Chain (BTF-0204, qty 2)
3-Inch Head Pin, 20 Gauge (Sterling Silver) (SS-HP03, qty 16)
6x15mm Stainless Steel Oval Trigger Clasp (CLASP-0361, qty 1)
4.5mm Gunmetal-Plated 21 Gauge Open Jump Ring (BGM-OJR04-A, qty 4)


This necklace and earring set I got from Fusion Beads, another great place to shop.  It came from their inspiration page and you can order all of the components and download a pdf of the instructions from the project page.
