So I found these limited edition Swarovski crystals that were in my local bead shop. I couldn't resist because of the cut and the colors that shifted in the prism. Problem was I didn't know what I wanted to do with it. I got some coyote claws in the mail and then it struck me exactly what I wanted to do.

I went digging into my bead bucket and pulled out some spiffy green-yellow-red glittery beads and some awesome cracked glass yellow beads. So this chocker has all sorts of shiny aspects of it.

It's strung together with cotton woven with a "hemp stitch" and well a very complicated hemp stitch to keep the beads, diamonds, and claws in place. Plus I had to hide the black thread used to hold the diamonds throughout the necklace. I must have made then tore apart this thing 4 times before I got the count and splits in the threads needed for this.

Sorry that I don't have anything grey to photograph on. I have black but then you couldn't see the gems or the claws.
