Back in January, I had the pleasure to take a wire wrapping class with California with the incredible Amy Hanna. Upon my return home I started to collect beads and supplies for making necklaces and last weekend, I finally put one together. I'm so in love with this necklace! It is very meaningful to me. I used ice resin and images of my Grandpa and Grandma to make the domed bezel accents. My grandparents were happily married for 52 years before my Grandma passed away, and the heart in the center of the necklace symbolizes their love.
I hope you've enjoyed this peek at my first necklace.
Carolyn! These necklace is so beautiful, so full of love... I'm very touched... The pictures are incredible :) Good job!
