The main beads on this necklace are twigs from my cedar tree in the backyard. I stripped off the bark, sawed them into manageable sizes, let them dry for 2 months, and then drilled holes for stringing them up. I used a wood burner with different tips to create the patterns on the beads. I think it looks very organic and perhaps even a little tribal... something to wear with your leopard print dress!

Carol, it's absolutely gorgeous! What a unique gift that would be!
It is fabulous Carol! Definitely has a tribal look to it. Looks great with the turquoise.
