I went to England a couple of years ago and saw beaded necklaces that
had a neckband like a choker, but also had cascading beads probably
almost 5 inches in an upside down pyramid shape. I am new to beading
and have no idea what to call this pattern so I can look it up or buy
it. They were very lacy which I don't show below.

I have a scar on my neck and would like to make this out of peach
colored crystals so I could have something pretty to wear when I go
out. I think if I could even see one I could pretty much figure out
how to design one for me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Do you mean something like the one that is offered on UK ebay right now.
Ebay number 4989820940

I have just made my GD a choker with not so many dangles on.

Close. It is more of a cross between 4990090126 and 4989720418 and
these were made with beads. I think most of it was using a needle and
beading thread.

I have considered using a metal choker ring, adding beads to the ring,
and then putting threads off of that and basically doing beaded
macrame for the rest of it.

Victoria
are you talking about a broadcollar?

This woman lives near me - she has a few of her kits left, and a good
book on how to create these -- If you email her and don't hear right
away - wait, as I believe she might be on vacation.
I have three kits... and started one in April.... should take me 20
years to finish them all... LOL

Shirley,

I have been looking over the necklaces on UK ebay and have gotten many
ideas for techniques that I could use to make the necklace I have in
mind. Thank you so much for taking the time to look that up for me.

This one is really simple and would work -

Those aren't the ones I was talking about. They are wonderful! The
problem is I don't think I would live long enough to make the kit up!
Those look like you have to know what you are doing. By the time I
get that far along I will be far too old to see the beads or even
care! LOL.

That sounds to me like it's done with vertical netting. I've seen
chokers like the one you're describing. If it's the same thing I'm
thinking of, it's easy enough to do. did the triangle part look like
the ones in this?

You can make some thing nice with bead netting which is easy to do as well.
Go to a fabric shop and get some pretty braided lace and attach a netted
bead design to the lace. I have made several of these that are very pretty.

Roxan makes collars that are mind-boggling!!! I've even gotten to try some
on. Absolutely stunning!!!

Hey - by the way, when would you like to meet for lunch? I seem to have a
bunch of free time and I'm curious about that other bead shop in Carlisle.
