After I created this necklace, I wondered if it would be better plain or with the leaves added. My sister-in-law suggested I find a way to make the leaves detachable. I had one of those,"now why didn't I think of that" moments? And away I went.
I strung the leaves and other beads on silk cord and attached lobster claw clasps so I could attach/detach at will. Here is the result.
