Phoenix Bird - Bib Necklace

Today I'd like to show you my latest bead embroidered bib necklace. This time I decided to do less embroidery and show off a bit more of beautiful artificial leather that I used as a base. I used jasper cabochons, Japanese seed and bugle beads and some sequins. The backing is made of soft ultrasuede and it ties with brown silk ribbon, so you can easily adjust the length. I think ribbon adds some lightness to the bib. What do you think?

And some details...

xo,
