Flower Pendant-Charm with Mairam's Crafting Supplies

I want to share this Flower Pendant I made for my mother for Mother's Day. Everything you see can be purchased from Miriam's Crafting supplies except the chain, jumprings and lace.

I hope I'll be able to talk you thru how I made it and I really hope you try to make one as well.

It's easy fun and turned out lovely I think.

Here's the list of supplies you will need as well as the tools required:
Needle Nose Pliers two pair or one regular pair and one needle nose.
Some large link chain.. I used some from my part's and pieces tub of dismantled Jewelry.
Jump Rings, several to hang your charms with and at least one small enough to go thru the
hole already in the flower.
E600 adhesive or equivalent

From Miriams you will need the following:
~Copper Tone Metal Flower
~an assortment of charms, I used the key, tree of life, leaf and owl on my pendant- You can find these items here:
http://www.miriamscraftingblog.com/charms-and-other-metal-embellishments.html
~ You will need 6 flat back pearls I used the 5 MM AB Pearl in black
You can find them here: http://www.miriamscraftingblog.com/pearls.html

~ Flat back Rhinestone AB Crystal 5 MM in Size
You can find them Here:
http://www.miriamscraftingblog.com/rhinestones.html

Start by making your tassle by adding your charms to your chain using jumprings

the little beads you see here were part of my stash and already on chain I just took them off

and moved them where I wanted them.

Then Add the Chain Charm Tassel to the hole in your flower using a small jumpring

Then add a larger Jumpring thru the top of the flower shown here to hang it on your

lace or chain to wear, you can also add a small pen back to it and where it as a broach or if you chose

hang it on a mini or other project.

Next add your Pearls and Rhinestone with your E6000 as Shown

and your done... It makes a fab addition to the flower don't you think?

If your unsure how to use jumprings there are lots of instructional videos on Youtube that will show you how.

Now here is the finished Pendant.. I hope you enjoyed my post and will try to make one of your own..

Virginia Dare

PS. I chose the charms for the meaning behind them each one has a different symbolism choose charms for your project that speak to you Miriams has a wide array to choose from.

Owl~Wisdom

Leaf~Change

Tree~Growth

Key~Freedom

Here’s is my project. An Altered Canvas using Graphic 45’s “A Ladies Diary” The photos on this page are of my niece and I love them I think this paper line compliments them well or maybe it’s vice versa. Either way I love the paper line there is something for everyone’s tastes in this line. I love to mix digital with traditional in my crafting or scrapping, which is what I’ve done here.
