Stacked Paper Recycled Paper Pendant Necklace


I made this pendant by using recycled scrapbook paper.  It's stacked and hardened with glue.  Then it's ground down to expose layers of paper and then sanded till it's smooth.  It receives 4 coast of sealer.  

This particular stacked paper pendant is wired wrapped and have a wire bale.






The back is finished and sealed also.  The coordinated paper beads continue around the necklace with black rondel beads in between.

Believe it or not!  These next beads are made with dried potato.

More Paper Rolled Beads

I've made so many beads, I've had to open an Ebay store called Myauctionattic so please check it out.  I pretty much have my beads, jewelry, and coasters up for bidding.  I'm not doing to badly but wish I could sell more so I can make room for more.  Living in a 40' motor home doesn't allow me to store very much.

magazine pages

this is a bracelet and can be worn as a necklace

Seed Beed Ankle Bracelets

To pass my time and use up some seed beads, I did a search on seed bead ankle bracelets and came up with this:
(I should have turned the photo) They were fun and once I got past the first one, they went very quickly.  You can find the pattern on youtube by searching beaded ankle bracelets.  I'd give you the link but I downloaded it to my desktop and no longer have it.  She's with Off The Beaded Path.

I made a few other strung jewelry pieces that I"ll get photos of and post soon.  

Today I'm making paper beads again.  I found an outstanding Facebook page HERE  

You'll find the website for these beads below HERE

I really want to make these!  Paper sure can be a fun hobby.........LOVE IT!crafttestdummies_faux_lampwork_beads

Beautiful Pendant Crocheted Necklace

Beautiful Pendant Crochet Necklace was just listed in my Etsy Shop





Price was $16.00 SALE NOW priced at $12.00 THAT'S 25% off!!!

I created this necklace with a polished rock pendant I found while in Quartzsite, AZ. So many wonderful bead shops there! 

This dark gray (grey) polished rock has some beautiful swirl affects and goes beautifully with the clear glass cubes and fresh water pearls. The pearls are gold and silver/black. Stunningly crocheted with pearl cotton crochet thread by DMC.

Please let me know if you'd prefer priority shipping.

41" long and with the pendant about 43" long. 
16 fresh water pearls



What do you think?  Is the price too high?  I've discounted 25%!  Do you like the pendant and would you like to see more pendants? OR some other type of jewelry?


Thanks!!
