I saw this project in the holidays Step by Step Jewelry and have been wanting to do it....i even got all the jumprings from Hobby Lobby not too long after i got the book......well i finally got around and did it.....i started on it yesturday and spent a good part of the day doing it......i finally got it finished just alil while ago...WOW what a brain teaser wacko.gif.....think i'm going to be cross eyed for awhile lol.....well i made this bracelet 8" long..alil longer then the book said and it's kinda saggy on me ohmy.gif...oh well i can shorten it lol....then i decided to make the pendent....it is small more like the size of a charm and took some work as well.....my pliers kept slipping and probably made nicks in every jumpring on the whole project sad.gif........oh well it was very challengeing but i got it wink.gif

TY faaus........here is a closeup pic of the project........thought it might be really hard to see or people might think it's part of the mag....The project took 109...6mm Silver jumprings and 71...4mm Gold jumprings to make the 8" bracelet.......i'm also trying to decide if i want to add that Malachite bead in the center of the circle pendent....will either try and string wire threw it or just glue it mellow.gif....what does everyone think about adding that to the project? unsure.gif
