A New Year and A New Look

I made this necklace in December 2013.  Icy, cold winter sunsets with shades of pale pink, inspired me to create this piece at that time. 

I have taken it to several venues to sell.  No one purchased it.  So.. a few weeks ago, I brought it home to keep it for awhile, with plans to offer it for sale at another time.  When I got home, I noticed that it seemed to tangle easily.  I found that frustrating and decided that the design needed to be changed.  Maybe that was why it had not sold.

To the workshop it went.  I removed several pieces, played around with the design, and ended up with a three piece set.

No more tangle issues.  And what I think to be more of a streamlined design for the necklace, with the bonus of matching pieces.  Sometimes it makes sense to re-purpose my own work.
