Old Pendant Makeover

New life for an old pendant

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/old-pendant-makeover • Posted by Rozantia P.

I've had this pendant for years and didn't wear it because it came with a linen thread that I didn't like. I decided to make a necklace with it as a focal. I chose gemstone beads in matching colors and made wired links with them. I also found a single spacer finding in my stash and used it to make my design asymmetrical. Then I added a matching pair of earrings. The color of the pendant was green and gold and I used natural stones jasper, agate and acai beads and carnelian chips.
