Red White and Blue Handmade Crochet Beaded Necklace Made in USA

Product Details:

This piece is a unique handmade crochet beaded necklace fashioned in a red, white & blue pattern with pearl beads spaced

evenly throughout. The beads are glass, and are crocheted into
denim semi-glossy crochet thread. I've added two silver colored
fish clasps to this, which complement the red white & blue colors,
while keeping it secure. Measurements: The length is approximately 15", including the 2 silver colored fish clasps.  The width is 3/4". 

This is a one of a kind, handmade piece. I created it in the USA,
here on the Gulf Coast of Texas. This item is available for FREE
shipping within the Continental United States. If you are outside
of the Continental U.S. and are interested in this or another of my
items and have good feedback here or on another reputable online
site, please feel free to contact me, and perhaps we can come to
an agreement.  

Thank you for visiting my shop, and please let me know if I can

When I was a small person we visited my Grandmother on occasion.  This was a treat as she lived out of state, and we rarely saw her, but she had the most wonderful kitchen, as least my childhood memory remembers it so.  The thing I thought was one of her better "tools" were here recipe boxes.  She didn't have just one, she had several, and they were all unique and different.  Dinners, Desserts, and one for Special Occasions and Holidays.
