A Beautiful Surprise

 
My friend Judith found this beautiful necklace in a tangled heap at the bottom of a jewelry box. The repair looks simple, but it is not. It  looks like you should be able to tie a knot and call it a day, but nope. The string is too short and this pearl necklace is knotted. By knotted, I mean there’s a knot between each bead. To repair this necklace, I had to take the broken strand apart by clipping one knot at a time. Then, I was able to string and hand knot the necklace to make it wearable again. Now it's time to make a statement in this repaired beauty!
