At the top right you see something I call a "slide." Another wire doodle. This handy little thing dispenses with the knot at the back of the neck. I hate that big bulge resting on my neck. The slide keeps the ribbons where they're supposed to be and allows you to adjust the length of the necklace. Just add a bauble to each end of the ribbon to prevent the ends of the ribbons from completely slipping through the slide and you're finished.
One of the great things about having a bunch of ribbons in a basket is that you can get some neat random color combinations. When I saw these gold and shocking pink ribbons together, I knew it was right! Their color vibrations practically sent a pulse out into the room! Let me ask you something ... do you find yourself being attracted to off-beat color combinations or do you like more harmonious color pairings? Inquiring minds want to know ...

LOVE the color combo and the wire doodle slide and the flower. I think you should post a quick and dirty tutorial for the slide ;o)
