Wire Wrapped Glass Leaf Necklace

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

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Whimsical, Formal / Bridal, Classic, Holiday, Traditional, Romantic, Cute, Funky, Hipster


Materials

argentium sterling wire, glass leaf pendant, leaf beads, silver beads, mixed beads, flower beads

What was your inspiration?

I liked this leaf pendant but thought it was too plain. So I dressed it up with wire and beads, then hung it on a beaded necklace. I added a handmade argentium sterling hook and eye clasp.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Be really careful when working with wire and glass. It's easy to break the leaf where the wire goes through the hole.

Jus2, there are no instructions for this piece. It's a freeform piece that I did using a glass leaf and some wire. There isn't any set pattern to follow. Just make a bail by stringing wire through the hole in the top and forming your bail, then twist the wire and add beads in a pattern that you like.
