Naftali’s EZ Bead Changer Necklace- Fabulous!

Posted on 17. May, 2008 by Jenny in Medium: Polymer Clay, Reviews, Technique: Beading

I was surfing through some Etsy Polymer Clay artists’ sites, and I ran across a jewelry maker who goes by the name of Naftali. In addition to some lovely polymer clay beads and jewelry, she also sells these EZ Bead Changer necklaces. I bought one on Monday, and I was delighted to receive it on Friday afternoon.

It came in a little organza pouch with a couple of Tootsie Rolls, and in box with ribbon. Nice presentation.  I got the sterling silver version, which also came with a wire mesh necklace. It was $37.00 plus the shipping, but it came in under $40.00 all told.

There is a little bead “nut” at the bottom of the changer, and it just slides on and off of the post- kinda like one of those earwire nut thingies.  I immediately raided my “orphan” bead box for some of  those big wonkin’ beads that I made, but just couldn’t figure out what to do with.

HA! At least 5 of them will be AWESOME on this necklace! The mesh necklace part is about 3/8 inch wide, so it’s nice and substantial… and balances out the big wonkin’ beads!

I immediately took it over to Eva at GRB, and she loved it, too! We’re going to offer a class around these, and we’ll have a great time making….wait for it……BIG WONKIN’ BEADS!
