I hope it works out for u I like them alot and I went to a fourth of July craft fair in my town wearing them and alot of people liked the idea lol. Personally if u have heavier pendants and have pierced ears and don't wear the earings because of the weight of them try that. It really makes them much lighter.
Well, the weight is distributed equally with these. smilies/icon_lol.gif

I like that idea! I might have to try it!
How long were your wire strips?
I've been making gold toned jewelry lately. Had a request. Specially the squiggle design. Hobby lobby had a 1/2 off sale on findings, beads, and charms so i bought 50 bucks worth! (I should have saved it but i couldn't resist!)

The length should be about 6 inches and u fold that in half... give it 7 to be on the safe side more is always better. ^^

My latest creation is another scarf using beaded netting and point edging. I will have to post photos. My first task is to get LOTS more beads to continue. smilies/icon_3nodding.gif

Hello!

Unsure of the formalities with this, since I'm not in the guild =P But I like telling people about what I do too.

I generally work with wire (Copper is delicious, brass is nice too), glass and semi-precious stone, sometimes delving into leatherworking and heavier metals.

Also, I saw mention of Fire Mountain Gems. Wonderful place ^^

well the guild is pretty dead lol you should think of making decorative chopsticks ^^ for the hair. I also bet you could make some nice tiara type pieces some women would just die to have a tiara for their wedding xD you would probably have to go with a more gold or silver toned metal however maybe sterling silver or something ^^

=P I noticed after I posted... so sad.

I've got crowns and tiaras in my repertoire, and I bet I could get some good chopsticks going. I also cure and cut feathers into quill tip pens and wrap those up nice and pretty, which I actually practice on chopsticks before I wrapped wire around the feathers =P

That's cool ^^ I bet you could make some amazing chopsticks for hair. It would be really cool if you could melt your own metal and make metal chopsticks smilies/icon_whee.gif which wouldn't be too hard you would just need a small furnace for metal work and a mold for chopsticks. You could probably get a lot of people going for them if they are well made and smooth and not sharp xD if they were sharp though you could sell them as improvised hair accessory weapons which would also be amazing XD and a whole market of women would probably be up for it ^^

Yeah, this forum is kinda dead.

I've had major drama in my family.
Plus, school and getting on here for some booty grabbing and that's about it.

Maybe it can be revived!
