That is a Paloma Picasso beaded necklace folks - from Tiffany's - pricey! But, stunning...and BLUE! All gemstones - Blue Chalcedony, Amazonite, and Gray Moonstone. It's the Amazonite that gives that necklace its "Tiffany Blue" color. Sarah's main color for her wedding will also be Tiffany Blue.
Tried as I may, I could not duplicate exactly those beauties you see in the picture above. If I found Amazonite in 10mm rounds, I could not find Blue Chalcedony in the same size. So, I just "bit the bullet" and ordered the gems. I was a little scared at first when I opened up the package - I would never in a million years combine these stones in one piece. But, I am not Paloma Picasso either. I used her Tiffany necklace as a springboard, and came up with this design instead. I bought the gems from Dakota Stones - they have never let me down!
Her wedding photographer played around with her necklace and her ring in this picture - love it!

Looks even better on Sarah! That beautiful boy in the picture is Thor - the sweetest German Shepherd you will ever meet, and one of Sarge's best friends! Oh yeah, the handsome dude is Kevin! Kevin is a doll - I am so happy for them both!! Congratulations to my favorite niece named Sarah (yes...my only niece named Sarah)!
