I have scanned the necklace now, and the pics are much better. As per Kalera's request I added a close up of the wizard, and also of the toggle and bead weaving.
Any comments now that the pics are improved would be great.

Have you ever done a right angle weave (RAW)? That is one way to do that. If you need, I have the notes I wrote for a class I teach in RAW. I can pass them along for you. I teach beginning beading at the local Ben Franklin and I've been working on writing step-by-step directions. I have to write them for people who have NEVER beaded before so they aree pretty simple.
You are in luck because I am very simple. lol I have never, ( bad English), done any beading, but want to really bad. If you wouldn't mind... I would love to learn how to do this. RAW... right angle weave huh... I thought that they weren't done yet. I told you I am not the brightest bulb on the tree. lol

Sir Harry, That's why I sent what I did to you. They are to practice with. That's what I used. Now I am perfecting it. LOL
JoAnn, Could you send them to me too? I would really be appreciative.
That wasn't made with right angle weave. On the first length of silamide, I simply strung 2 seed beads then a druk of the appropriate color and then 2 more seed beads of the same color, and then did the same with the other color on the 2nd length of silamide and then put both strings through the crystal. Then I continued on, but alternating colors on each length of silamide.
I will see if I can come up with a visual to help you get the idea better.

I thought you might not have used RAW but you could have. :-) I'm a glutton for punishment, I love doing the right angle weave.
I like the pattern when you first posted it but now that I've seen the clearer photos, I REALLY like it! It's perfect for your wizard. Wear him with pride!

Those are great pics and very beautiful pieces. I particularly like the way you carried out the dueling colors concept. That is very visually intriguing.

I am really liking that piece... every time I look at it, it reminds me of my best friend. It's so utterly *her*, and so nicely done.
