Ammonite Fossil Necklace

  Happy Mango Beads is currently having a sale on their 
Ammonite Fossil pendants.
Which got me to thinking of the one I have had in my stash 
like forever. 
Before I get more I need to use what I have.
So I got to creating. 
Laying out potential beads I'd like to use.
Should it be short or long? One strand or multiple stands?
A single strand seemed to light and a triple stand too much.
Tomorrow I may think differently.
I ended up using these beads...
Magnesite, Picture Jasper, Wooden Agate, 
and Glass O-rings for a little metallic accent.
I also used waxed Irish linen cord and did some hand knotting.
I really like the length. 
Not quite a choker and it lays nicely on the chest.
Simple and easy.
