Blue Victorian Swag set With Rivoli crystals largely made from a kit by Melanie Potter of the School of Beadwork

I beaded this necklace from a kit designed by Melanie Potter of the School of Beadwork.
I made it for my friend Monica to wear to the Victorian ball and coordinated some of the bead colors to match her gown, from the swatch shown.
My addition to Melanie's design was the crystal drops I added to make it look a bit more formal and the Swarovski bicones around the earrings, a technique I learned in another class.
This particular set with minor variations was designed by Melanie Potter and largely created from a kit designed and sold by her.
