Tree of life

I don't know why I didn't try these sooner. These tree pendants are so fun to make. The possibilities are endless! And that's one of the things I love about wirework. I feel challenged to keep making, to keeping finding out what can be made, what you can do with wire...

 

This is the second tree of life pendant I've made. It's wire wrapped in copper on a hammered base. I used peridot chips for the leaves and teeny tiny garnets for the apples. There are little apples peeking out from the leaves, and even a little one at the top of the tree.

I like how this one turned out and will hopefully make one or two more. I only have so many of those little garnets though! This one went in my shop today.

And in other news, it's the weekend! I received a large order of clay in the mail yesterday (well, it was large for me!). I'm hoping to make a few things to stock up my shop this weekend, including some of my Hare Jumping Over the Moon pendants. We'll see!

Have a great weekend!
