These pretty, yet elegant, 7-strand necklaces are made in a beautiful, classic design that is easy to wear. We named these Musana meaning ”sun” and ”sunshine” because we think they uplift an outfit with a great, classic touch full of happy colors.
We think of these as a classic necklace design with a twist. The twist is that they are made from paper beads. In this necklace, the paper beads are all made in the same shape and color - a gorgeous baby blue. The seed beads are in silver.
These paper beads are made from thin strips of paper that are rolled tightly into a bead, varnished 5 times for durability and then strung into a necklace. It is a time consuming project, but it is also like making something beautiful from nothing.
