Rearranging and Earring Making

Hey, readers.  In my last post, I talked about and showed off a jewelry set that I had recently made.  Late last night, I took a look at the necklace from it and realized that I wasn't that crazy about the placement of the bead work.  So, I took the necklace apart and changed the placement of it.  Here's what the necklace use to look like.


 And here's what it looks like now.



I removed 2 of the split rings that I used to attach the first chain to the key pendant and just ran the chain through it.  Next, I added the bead work to the chain ends.  Then, I reattached the second chain.  Since, I could easily put the necklace on by pulling it over my head, I removed the toggle clasp.  This simple design fix makes the piece look so much better. 

Today, I was in another jewelry creating mood.  So, I decided to make some more earrings.




Another productive day in the bin. How's your week been going so far?  Let me know in the comments.  Til next time.
