Blushing Rose Necklace
The peachy-pink colors of our Swarovski and Czech crystals combined with our pink resin beads make this look just like the color of a blushing rose.  We have added our peachy-pink seed beads and highlighted it with our gold plated metals.  If you are a pink girl, you will just love this one!  The finished length is approximately 18 inches.  You can make it shorter by eliminating the last courses of seed beads and crystals on either side.
