Today I finally got the last of the jewelry supplies. Turns out the chains I got are a bit too delicate for hanging around your neck (at least for the necklaces I'm making), but works very nicely for multiple pendants on one necklace... you'll see what I mean. And the bigger silver rings are too thick to go through the small silver chain which is annoying, but mum had some in stor eI could use today. Will just have to buy some if I wanna make more necklaces.

Anyhow, I made three necklaces!
All are for sale, somewhat.


First I made the golden snitch (a Harry Potter thing if you don't know).

The ball is an antique brass locket and so has some spots (but I could probably polish it), and so it opens. Just room for a picture, not to put anything "in the ball" so to speak.
Wings, ring and chain are all silver plated or silver coloured.
I love how it turned out but as my love for Harry Potter stops at "hm, I enjoy reading the books" it's not a necklace for me. So this very necklace is indeed for sale, and I have supplies for five more (chain is optional).





Then we have the Lord of the Rings necklaces. For now I have just made two Éowyn/Faramir ones.
The tree is for Gondor (Faramir's home), the horse for Rohan (Éowyn's home) and the moon is for Ithilien (where they settled after the War of the Ring. They were titled Prince and Lady of Ithilien and lived happily ever after~~)

In silver


In antique brass


The brass necklace closes using a big beautiful toggle clasp



Both LotR necklaces are for me, but I can make more. I do not have more of the chain that goes around the neck for the brass one (just have the more delicate chain used for hanging the horse and moon). I only have one brass tree like that left, but I have two other ones, almost as big but with leaves and in a circle. And I have smaller toggle clasps as well as regular lobster ones.
When it comes to the silver one I have the exact same supplies for several more necklaces.

I also have small simple silver swords, about the same length as the silver moon. So they can be added or used to make necklaces for the Rohirimm (horse + sword), Gondorians (tree + sword) or Rangers of Ithilien (tree + moon + sword).

Of course the silver necklaces including a tree can be made in the same way as the brass one, hanging for example the sword and moon from the tree charm, but of course the tree would be much smaller and the charms would end up very close together. I still think it'd be beautiful though.



I am considering taking something around $10 for a necklace.
So if you want one, just poke me yeah?
