Beaded Vintage Pendants

Vintage pendants given a fun retro touch with colourful beading

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/beaded-vintage-pendants • Posted by Sarah W.

After buying a job lot of vintage jewelery for 99 pence I found a couple of pendants with out chains and decided to use varied colours of seedbeads instead of putting them on new chains in order to make them unique and one of a kind. This way I could choose just how long I wanted to make them and what colours I wanted. I bought some time ago some boxes of beads based on colours from the shop Tyger and used these on the necklaces and added jump rings on the ends rather than tie the thread and used these to attach the pendants in order to keep them in place. They remind me of the kids jewellery me and my sister used to have to play dress up with.
