Hunger Games Necklace #2

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Funky, Hipster


Materials

Metal, wire, natural stones,

What was your inspiration?

I was inspired after reading the books and this was the second necklace I made with the mockingjay pin as a main focal element.

What are you most proud of?

I enjoy the balance of this piece - the colors and textures.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

You never know what can be turned into jewelry - found objects are a challenge for your imagination and you should study each element to see the possibilities it will create. I get small fishing fly boxes to horde my finds in groups. Watch parts, old broken jewelry, odd metal elements. They all have great possibilities and are limited only by your vision.

The woven wire outer element were woven in two parts forming a hole in the middle. The back was made of an alunum disk which I colored blue to show on the inside and teal on the back. This was then coated with a sealer. The 16 gauge copper wire was wrapped inside the edge of the woven disks and then I shaped the top loop and drop loop for the bottom beads. The chain is brass.
