Ninja Princess

Sometimes things just happen, without planning, without a huge amount of thought! That is exactly how the Ninja Princess necklaces came about. Last year I made a lot of little star beads, really too many! And people liked them, but couldn't quite work out what to do with them. I had a LOT of beads leftover! I didn't really know what to do with them either, but one day while I was sitting down with all of my beads, I just decided to string them all up and see if it would make a nice necklace. It did! And it's very funky. I have been wearing it a lot, and every time i wear it out I get complimented on the necklace. Then one day someone asked if I was planning to make any more. I certainly wasn't planning to, but I decided to make some more in various colours. And here is the result...the Ninja Princess series, because the beads remind me of little ninja stars!
