These pieces were put together on the Swarovski crystal cruise in April 2011 by teams of people from all over the world and the pieces are now at the Swarovski headquarters in Austria. Understandably, since it was a contest, they are extremely ornate and the designers did not take the time to step-by-step the process. We think they're very inspiring and should spark many new creative ideas.

I am very disappointed that no directions were given regarding the technique used to create these necklaces. I bought the magazine because I thought there would be some directions given. What a bummer. Any info would be useful.
