Materials

The pendant is a beautiful old clip on earring I stumbled across at a second hand store. I accented it with blue glass beads, gold tube beads, faux pearls and gold tone chain.

What was your inspiration?

The elegance of the earring made me want to create something beautiful. It was a shame to not enjoy that classic styling of the earring in a more modern way.

What are you most proud of?

I'm really proud of taking something that was discarded and making in into some beautiful and useful.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Give it a shot. There are so many awesome old pieces of jewelry no one wears any more because they are out dated.
