This is a really excellent set of pendants. You've really captured a nighttime feel with the different elements you included, especially on the right-most piece which brings to mind a moon low on the horizon with some tall grass in your line of sight. Overall the three pieces work really well together and the way you've arranged them, both for wearing and for the shot is quite captivating.

This is very beautiful.
I like the constrast between the matte black and metal, the simple form and the delicate leaf.
I think the 3 of them goes well together, it could have been a necklace.

These are very nice, a great use of scrap materials. I would agree with what Ninina-nini said, you could use sandpaper to rough up the pendant hooks a little bit, to give it a matte finish.

Hmm. There's no info given. Forgive me, but how did you get the leaf to stick to what appears to be felt?
These are really nice.

whit glue, that is what i don't like in the picture, it looks a bit messed up, but in real it don't look like that.

Ooh, these are awesome! I like how each one has their own personality, and I love that they aren't symmetrical.

They look very magical to me.
Only one thing slightly bothers me and that's the difference between shiny hooks and not at all shiny silvery accents on pendants. But I loooove the pendants, you have great eye for composition you know.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh, yes i know, i don't like this either 
i also don't like the way the glue looks in the picture :/ but i don't have any ideea how i can put the leaf on the felt whitout leaving any marks 
I also lovethe composition, i think i can ignor a bit the technical details and just admire them as a hole composition, not necesarlly as pendats

of course
maybe you could scrape those hooks with sand paper a bit? could work... maybe...
glue is such a pain in the arse

I tryed to use sandpaper, but it did't came out as i expected
the one clasp that i experimented on has now a copper shine and not mate silver

o damn! those bastards.. they sell us 100% silver huh?
I'm glad you tried though. I'm sure you'll come up with something great to use this copper shine instead of rejecting it
p.s.
