When working with larger beads, like the mushrooms and pears, please keep in mind it's like handling a blown glass ornament -- string them gently into place on the cord and try to avoid knocking them into each other to avoid breakage. Be sure to leave at least 1" of slack in your completed garland to allow it to drape.
Jewel Tone Grapes and Pears is a mix of bold and festive hues. This garland is dramatic and gorgeous!
