Very pretty, Anna. I like your mix of gemstones and acrylic. I immediately thought of planets, galaxies and just maybe black holes.

[@Potomacbeadco]

This is so pretty, I'm working on mine now. Let me know the length of your project so I can decide whether I'd need to make the spaces between the sections longer? I'm a 'chesty' woman so I tend to make my necklaces longer than average. Thank you so much!

😍👏👍💐

Thank you for watching!

Would it be better to leave the film on the acrylic pieces until you have finished with the needle? I have some acrylic shapes that I can use, but I'm worried that I'll scratch them while I'm joining them.
Lovely necklace! Thank you for sharing! ❤

[@Potomacbeadco]

If you prefer you can do that, that's a great tip!

Where can I get champagne colour thread protectors please?

[@Potomacbeadco]

You would need to get them in gold filled and we are currently out of that color. We do have them in silver and antique copper plated. Feel free to browse our site! www.potomacbeads.com/
