Steampunk Necklaces! In Just Steampunk Vol. 3

I had four Steampunk Pendants published in "Just Steampunk Vol. 3" I love dabbling in jewelry.  Sometimes I alter what is found and other times I create something entirely new.

  

Not long ago at Echo ArtWorks in Bremerton WA I found these amazing charms: a telescope, divers helmet, magnifying glass and compass. I knew they would make great Steampunk pendants.  

Pictured above on page 17 of "Just Steamupunk Vol. 3" 

Telescope on swivel, with gears and butterfly.

Divers Helmet on swivel with gears, fish and sea star.

Magnifying glass on swivel with gear and old clock key.

Compass on swivel with gears.

MY FINAL PROJECT AT THE ART RETREAT

On Sunday our group met at Echo ArtWorks to make our Treasure Trove Necklace.  Susan lead the project.  With bits of ribbon, charms, beads, findings and more I made my necklace.  I am very happy with the results!!!

With the help of Beth of Echo ArtWorks, the charms,

 brass frame and flying bird 

were put into a solution to add the wonderful patina. 

The ribbon was intertwined through the chain.

Additional pieces of ribbon were used for knotting. 

The focal piece is the brass frame and bird.  

Holes were punched in each to use in the necklace.
