A Reversible Necklace

I have had these little triangles for quite a while in a range of colors, from different shades of green to yellow-orange to dark purple. I just couldn't make up my mind what to make of them. I thing I must have started 5-6 different things, none of which I liked.

Then, at one of the workshops I attended, I saw this lovely spiral made by Handush, who used silver and black triangles, and I knew immediately what to do.

I just loved the idea of flowing from one color into the other. The result was a spiral starting at green and ending at the dark purple. I made two identical ones.

Then, I couldn't decide how to mount them. It took me a while and quite a few attempts to realize that I like both ends and that each deserves to be at the front. That's how this became a reversible necklace. I made two toggles, one on each end so this necklace can be worn either with the green at the front of with the purple.

Here it is:

Green side at the front

Purple side at the front

Oh and guess what? It can also double as a bracelet. How neat is that?
