I love long necklaces because you can wear them in many ways; double it up, as a bracelet or layer them with other necklace.   The Chained  Reaction Necklace is done by first stringing tiny paper beads into a hoop earring finding and then connected to each other.

I have been doing a lot of wire crochet lately, they are very simple to do and yet the effect…. well, you be the judge.  I did this in magenta colored wire with small and medium size paper beads.

The nice thing about crocheted wire, they can expand and you can crunched them up to make it smaller.

I also love the fact that the beads just seem to float on the crocheted piece.
