Formal Nights Hemetite Choker

Since coming back from my month long trip through Europe I have been trying to finish off several pieces, photograph and post to my etsy shop Angelque Creations.  One of these is Formal Nights adjustable choker/princess necklace.  I made this necklace adjustable so that one would have several options to wear it out to a formal evening with you little black dress, or wear it longer with your business suit during the day.  The necklace is made with a right angle weave (RAW) and is 1" in width and adjust from 16" to 19" in length.  The button clasp I used two recycled coat buttons that have a chrome finish.  When you first put on the necklace the coolness of the Hemeitite stone is refreshing but quickly warms up to body temperature.

I stood there staring and staring and had to be dragged away. 3. Do you do any other crafts? I have done some small fiber weaving (loom work interestingly enough and I love it), ...
