Spring Swap Necklace

I participated in my first Etsy Beadweavers Swap this Spring, receiving a wonderful necklace from a beader on Florida and sending this pendant to a beader in Australia!  She said she liked pink and purple so I went all in.

This is a crystal pearl with one round of brick stitch, then lots and lots and lots of netting. 

There are some pinch beads on the back giving it some bones, as my new favorite author Joe Abercrombie would say!
