Description

Make my Copper and glass bead hammered spike pendant

Instructions

1. 

   What you need: 1: Heavy Gauge Copper Wire (I've used 3mm Here) 2: Glass Beads (Choose your colour) 3: A Ruler 4: Hammer and Metal Block

2. 

   Measure out one piece of wire to 1.5 inches, two pieces to 1 1/4 inches & two final pieces to 1 inch in length.

3. 

   Cut the pieces of wire to the required lengths.

4. 

   Hammer flat about a third of the way up each length of wire.

5. 

   Add a bead onto each length of wire deciding which pieces you want where. If the bead falls too far over the hammered piece then extend the hammering slightly higher.

6. 

   Make a loop at the top of each piece of wire and slide all five pieces onto another piece of copper wire about 1.5 inches long. Loop the ends of this piece also. You can now attach chain to either side of the pendant and your done.
