Evergreen Twinkle Necklace

Holiday sparkle with two-tone crackle glass beads shade from ruby red to forest green, with tiny flecks that catch the light with every move. They’re strung with teal glass seed beads and little gold-tone spacers, and a hand-finished enamel Christmas tree charm hangs at the center, complete with a red star and tiny colorful crystals. A gold-tone toggle clasp fastens in front and is easy to do up one-handed. It’s festive without being loud, and it works for ugly sweater parties, church services, or the office.

Size Medium necklace, 18 to 19 inches

Materials

• Crackle glass beads, about 8mm (red and green, two-tone)

• Glass seed beads in teal, with small red accents

• Gold-tone spacer beads and toggle clasp

• Gold-tone enamel Christmas tree charm with small crystals

Care tips

• Put it on after lotion, perfume, and hairspray, and take it off before showers, swimming, and workouts.

• Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Skip jewelry dips and polishing cloths, which can dull the enamel and the gold-tone finish.

• Store it flat or hung up, not tangled in a pile, so the charm and clasp don’t snag the beads.

• Crackle glass can chip if dropped on a hard surface, so handle it gently.
