Beaded Macrame Necklaces

I've been experimenting a bit with knotted necklaces in a heavier weight of cording than I normally use.  A bit of macrame at each end and a beaded loop and button closure with strands of knotted beads in between makes for a fun swingy necklace.  I've got a few really pretty buttons to play with.  The one in this purple number is one of my favorites with a combination of purple and copper.

The button in this aqua one is Czech glass with reverse painting and a floral design:

  2. This is just beautiful! I love the what you've got a tight weave at the closure, but have a loose stringing with layers of beads around the front. Lovely design. And that Czech button is stunning!
