New Top and Bottom Tango  Braid is perfect for the even spacing of crystals or beads along the length of the necklace.  This braid got it's name from the fact that you can have beads along the inner circle of the necklace (top) as well as along the bottom, outside edge of the braid.  This braid is a chameleon.

This green leaf braid used CZs for the leaves and smaller "bottom" crystals.

   
The Top and Bottom Tango is topless.  There are no beads along the inside "top" edge of the necklace. 

This basketweave braid is called the Roundabout.  Instructions are available.  It is a sixteen bobbin braid over plastic core.

Silver lined slider beads are available. If you are interested, send me some email.
