Beautiful Christmas ornament bringing the romance of the Victorian age to the Now by using the hot new 2-hole Diamonduo beads combined with luscious pearls and Swarovski crystals. This ornament is made in sections – the top, and five snowflakes. Each snowflake is attached as it is beaded but works up rather quick!
