Dal Cuore Necklace Tutorial

Details

This is a listing for the stunningly romantic Dal Cuore necklace. This is an ADVANCED project; you will need to be proficient in CRAW, RAW, Netting and basic bead weaving.


This is my take on the Heart of the ocean necklace. I named it Dal Cuore meaning “From the heart”, in remembrance of a fabulous vacation in Italy. The fantastic food, warm people and amazing historic architecture are something we will never forget. You can actually imagine history come to life taking some of the walking tours, not to mention the gelato! It might seem like such a small thing to remember but it was seriously divine! What we get here at home is such a pale imitation, I haven’t been able have one ever since! Italy isn’t just about the history, they have stunning coastline vistas to die for. The richness of the culture and experience is hard to enunciate. This necklace is to remind me of the best summer vacation we had and though it is hard to imagine now, we will one day get back to normal and go on many an adventure!
