-         Each guest makes one strand of the bride's multi-strand necklace and them makes a bracelet or earrings for herself.

-         Each guest makes her own necklace or bracelet and earrings set to wear in the wedding.  The bride makes a set for herself to wear to the rehearsal dinner.

-         Each guest and the bride makes her own necklace or bracelet and earrings set to wear to the rehearsal dinner.
