I was fortunate to find some natural stone beads on clearance (20mm flat round green marble, and 5-6mm round green serpentine), and wanted to use one of the large flat beads as a center component in a necklace, accented with the matching green serpentine beads. I like how matte bronze seed beads complement the dark grey-green color of this natural stone, so this is the design I came up with. The strand is a basic netting pattern, which integrates nicely with the caged net around the center component. The center component can also be adapted for earrings (though they are on the large side). Enjoy!
