The real challenge (for me) was that the choices at the store for real pearls and shells are pretty limited, but I did like the rectangular shells and thought about doing a stretchy bracelet with the Swarovski double-drilled crystal spacers. The bracelet was a snap, but I was kind of stuck trying to figure out a necklace to go with it...and earrings to boot.
The earrings were simple - I just used wire to wrap the double drilled holes on either end like a briolette. Dangle a shell on a headpin at one end, and a post/wire on the other end. I like this style of earring finding - it's super comfy.
All in all, I'm pleased with my results...and I can finally "breathe" again knowing that the challenge is on the books as completed!
