Jewels & Cameo

I was looking through one of my old Where Women Create , as I said previously and looking at Amy Hanna pages at her wonderful altered necklaces I though I have enough vintage jewels and cameo stashed I could make a necklace
So I dug through drawers in 2 chest of drawers  and plastic bends and boxes and had enough rhinestones and chains out to start a production line making altered art necklaces It's always hard for me to choose what and which one to use. Like a friend said you have to many choices to choose from

I started with this large cameo it's sterling silver with 14kt roses     a coral color cameo                  

I wasn't sure what I was going to do but liked the look with the rhinestone ball necklace I bought several years ago,I think this is the first rhinestone good piece I bought back in the 1980's 

 This is the book by Amy Hanna I went to the library and got it , I laid out my jewels on the cover

A bowl of goodies 

I have the hardest time using these little o rings that sort of springs around

This is almost my finished necklace I just couldn't wait to show it off, I love it . I am going to use a small pearl chain on it also ,like a double necklace 

 I am going to gather up all my jewels and cameo I have all around the house and in the studio and put them in a huge glass bowl to show you all , Not now but sometime LOL
