Summer Rose pendant

by Joan Williams
(Springfield, MO)

One of my ongoing projects is re-purposing, or creating jewelry
using at least one component that was originally intended for
something else. It's a lot of fun to do!

I've also been experimenting with adding patina to brass, and that's
how this former lamp fixture trim piece got it's turquoise blue color.
I layered it with a filigree piece and a coral colored resin rose,
and found some matching blue and coral colored czech glass beads to
alternate with bits of brass chain.

I think this would look great with a summery flowered sundress!

I agree that this would be wonderful with a sundress. I also think it has a little vintage appeal too.

I agree, it has a vintage look and the contrast with the rose is very cute.
