You Will Need (5 things)

  • Craft Wire
  • Fabric stiffener
  • Foil wrappers
  • Jewelry Pliers
  • Glue

Steps (5 steps, 15 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take the chocolate wrapper and cut it into a rectangular shape.
    Now, place the golden side of the wrapper facing downwards (if you want the pendant to be golden). Fold the foil paper from both sides equally, so that the edges of both sides join in the middle. But before folding it from both sides you'll have to apply paper stiffener all over the silver surface and then fold it carefully.

  2. 2

    Again fold the foil paper into half.

  3. 3

    Now, start folding the foil paper from a corner, make small and even folds as quickly and carefully as possible.

  4. 4

    Now carefully open the 2nd fold, and gently squeeze 2 sides of the folded wrapper to form a basic leaf shape. It's almost ready. Wait for a while for the pendant to dry & get stiffened.

  5. 5

    You'll need a small pin to make hole (in the leafs petiole). Now insert a crafting wire through that hole, make a big loop and wrap the wire around half of the loop and petiole. Attach a jump ring to complete the pendant.
    Enjoy!
