It's another old necklace I made years ago, used once, kept in the closet, and forgotten. This was the time I was experimenting with wire so I decided to make my life a little bit harder by using wire wrapping on each of the pearl beads, instead of the usual eye pin. Here's a closer look:

| Hmmm... so you can't see the wire wrapping in this photo either... |
The shorter chain is around 18 inches and it's attached to the longer chain (20 inches). So this is just one necklace. And then I added 2 lockets. I love lockets! I have several locket pieces myself and I have 5 packs of different types of unused lockets in my stash (what to do with those... hmmm?) I don't really know what you can put in them since the space inside is very small.
The black bust was something I also found while cleaning the closet we use as storage. It was from when I had my jewelry business before. I used it to take pictures of the necklaces I made. That way, I don't have to pose in front of the mirror all the time. You will be seeing this black bust a lot in the future when I post my necklace projects.
