25 Motif Challenge #22 & #23

Well I reverted back to my "old" ways with tatting YES I caved and went to the needle ONLY BECAUSE I wanted something different I have had an idea for this kind of necklace for awhile and REALLY REALLY wanted to tat it... This set took me about a total of 6 hours to complete its made with size 20 thread and seed beads.
