"Hello this is Marie French, with Expert Village. Now we're going to design the piece. What I always try to find is one focal point that I work and I work around that focal point. Here I found just one earring and I loved it as the pendant center piece, and I love the lightness of it and that it has some rhinestones, so I know I'm going to add rhinestones. I know I'm going to add a pink stone. I've chosen a rose quartz, that I'll go ahead and use interspersed within the necklace, to think of lightness, of femininity. I also see that they have a lot of pearls, on this pendant, so I'm going to intersperse pearls. I have an old necklace, that I found at the thrift store. I'm going to cut it up and I'm going to use piece of the pearl. I'm going to add rhinestone, in the course of using these small rhinestone beads, and roundels, that have rhinestones in them. So I think of, again, femininity a little sparkle and pizazz and the light beauty, of the pink quartz, which means love. So why don't we go ahead and get started making our beautiful necklace."
