Description
for a close up view: [link]I started to play with wire, and made the pendant design for this necklace, and then decided to just try to make an entire piece. I really love this design. The plastic pearl beads in between make it look even prettier.
I really wish I could have been able to solder on this piece,instead of wire wrapping it, but I'm at home, and I'm not sure how to solder silver coated copper wire without ruining the color.
I'm hoping that when I get back to school, where I have access to the metals studios, I can remake this design in silver wire, and maybe even with real pearls.

aw thanks. everyone one really likes this one. I want to make a better version, but I don't have time or money.
I try to wear my stuff, but when I'm working on actually making jewelry in the studio, I'm not supposed to be wearing it.
I also sometimes forget to put on my jewelry. haha. I'm so bad for a jeweler. lol.

lol. I usually do wear my stuff alot. I actually like wearing my jewelry cuz I get compliments, and then when I tell people I made it, then they freak out. haha.
but I'm also a little crazy. when I wear my jewelry the outfit has to match. (instead of the other way around).
