1" Curiosities



I've been putting together some one inch by one inch shadow box pendants, and they've turned out really cute.



Collages of hand painted and stained book pages and individually antiqued letter tiles, studded with watch gears and little mechanical parts. Some are frosted with tiny rhinestones, and one even has tiny princess cut topaz loosely tumbling around inside with small blue metallic orbs. A touch of heart shaped confetti and some clipped type finish off another box. They have been way too much fun to make.



I've got some sterling chain and wire on the way, and soon my little boxes will be combined with pearls and crystals to make finished necklaces. I can't wait! I've promised a friend of mine she and her coworkers will have first pick of them, and the rest will be split between etsy and the gallery.
