Blue Goldstone & Blue Chalcedony Agate

Here's my latest.  It's a blue goldstone pendant I wanted to jazz up.  I bought it at the  local occult/magic/spirituality/don't know how else to explain it shop, and it came on a velvet cord.  I was unsure of which beads I was going to use on the strands until I stopped into the same local occult/magic/spirituality/don't know how else to explain it shop the other day, and found a few strands of blue goldstone chips.  I figured I may as well use the same stone as the pendant. 

I also saw some pretty blue chalcedony agate chips, and thought I would use it for something else, but the lady behind the counter thought I was going to use it for the same necklace.  That was a pretty good idea, as it broke up the darkness of the goldstone.  I should go back and show her what came of it.  

My mom said the pendant may be a bit small for all the busyness and angularity of the strands, and she may be right, but consider this:  I almost had 3 strands.  Luckily they didn't all fit into the crimp bead when I was making the clasp. 

Here's a picture.  I thought it would look worse than it did against a black background, but it came out okay.
