Using the CopprClay pendant that we made last week, I want to show you what I ended up doing with it. It was tempting to simply hang it from a plain black cord, but I wanted a bit more shine and contrast. And something a bit more interesting too!
Materials and Tools:
Large jump ring
Sliding tube bail
2 pieces of beading wire, 24 in each
22 assorted beads
40 size 1 crimp tubes
4 size 3 crimp tubes
Toggle and bar set(Sources: Vintaj, Auntie’s Beads, SoftFlex)

Wow Cyndi, this design is breathtaking! The copper clay pendant is gorgeous. Your mix of beads and components in this floating necklace design is spectacular. Want to go out and make one for myself!

Thank you, Duchess! I have enjoyed working with the CopprClay a lot…the pieces that you can make are so versatile
You made a necklace with the pendant!!! WOW! It is “stupendant!”
LOL!! I had to resist my urge to simple string it on a black cord and call if finished
