Hello creative friends and happy weekend.
I made this ball necklace today ⚽. One of my client ask me to make a necklace for him 🧑🏾 he said he wants to gift it to his girlfriend 👩🏽 as they will be going to a party a week later. I thought of a colorful work to make. Then I came up with an idea 😃💡, making a ball pendant necklace. The guy was like "WOW!"🤩, when he saw the outcome. Honestly , I was happy he was satisfied with the final look.

The Process
For the balls ⚽

- Add one gold bead and go through the next coloured bead.
- Go round adding the gold beads after each coloured beads making 6 gold beads available in that "circle"
- Go through one of the gold beads
- Pick up 5 coloured beads
- Add 4 gold beads instead of 5 due to the connecting beads
- Make a flower of 5 connect circles
- Keep adding circle then somehow you will form a cup
