Another Beaded Treasure

I saw a simple necklace at page 30 of the Beaded Treasures book I mentioned previously and wanted to try one out. I wanted a very simple design so made a hollow central bead and smaller beads to keep it company. I wasn't sure how to finish the fastening but saw some tag shaped beads elsewhere and thought I might make one to fit through the loop previously made.
Here's the finished article and I like its simplicity.

The next picture shows the thread going through the hollow bead,

I used a flash to get the pictures and expect to wear the necklace either against my skin or against a pale top so that the beads show up well. I deliberately made the simple beads different sizes to introduce some interest.
The hollow has a diameter of 24mm.
