Tatting Box

Sometimes designing tatting is a trial and error. Its in your head, but you cannot get the count right. You try and try again. 7 times and more but just not quite right. Its an easy pattern but yet, the count has to be perfect, the beads has to complement the design and not overshadow the tatting, it has to sit nice on the neck and finally, I got it! Now what am I going to do with the rest? Well, what do you all think of the final product?
