New pendant necklaces

Image
These pendant necklaces come from tutorials from Janice Berkebile and my favorite local instructor, Stacy Perry . They are made by hand cutting strips of metal, then hand stamping with design stamps or texture hammers. You then wrap the strips around a focal bead and embellish. The possible designs are endless. I've made a few so far and will be doing a few more to have available at shows upcoming. Take a look at just a few. This last doesn't have the wrapped strips, but I've hand stamped the design for the bead caps and spiral center. This gorgeous focal was made by lampwork artist, Moon Stumpp . Stop back for more! BTW: I should be adding a few things to my Etsy shop this week.
