Today is the day I can show you what I made from my bead soup partner Magda; our brief was we had to use the focal and clasp our partner sent us but could use the beads sent or use some from our own stash. I tried to use as many of the items Magda sent me as I could and just added one bead and some vintage brass chain of my own to finish off.
I made an asymetrical necklace, I loved the hand made beads and clasp she made for me, so the clasp had to be seen, but I had great difficulty deciding how to hang the focal circle of wood, I wanted to use the long wire wrapped bead she had made me in a different way. So this is what I eventually came up with.

That's really pretty Jackie ... Is it short 15 -16 inches... .. That will be stunning with the right neckline!... Lovely!!!

Jackie, I really like the coil work on the bail and the focal is so unusual. Good work!
Love the clasp on the side! Very cool design!

Well, I have to say your design rocks. I love the way your offset design showcases your unusual focal piece. Great work.
I find asymmetrical necklaces difficult to balance. However, you did a beautiful job! That pendant really called for simplicity, which added to the whole necklace's allure! Congratulations!

Oh, I completely agree, that clasp needed to be seen! And your way cool focal with the wire is awesome!
Very cute indeed! I love the design of this piece! WOW!
original unique design! Very nice!
Wow, that's such a cool focal and I love the unique way you've suspended it from the chain. Very nice!
What an interesting focal. I love how you have kept the piece fairly simple so as not to take away from the focal - simple but stunning! Well done!

Very unusual and creative. Nice job! I really like the earthy colors. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. So nice of you!
That slab of wood would have stymied me completely. you rose to the challenge very nicely. I'd like to see this on a model to see how it hangs.
Looks great! That agate is pretty :)
Oh wow, that's a show-stopper! Lovely piece :D
That is a bold and interesting design. I would love to see it on. I think it will look smashing! I see Audrey Hepburn with an armless coctail dress. Classy!
