Viking Knit Bracelet

I took a class yesterday on how to Create a viking knit bracelet. I enjoyed it so much I immediately came home and ordered more wire. The creations that I can make are endless, my mind is spinning. Even my husband liked it, so I am going to make him one in gun metal black, just the name sounds manly enough.

I have been dreaming of other beaded necklaces, seashore...trees...flowers...so keep checking back.

If you care to leave me a comment please do so.

I went for a hike today and brought my camera. I captured some pics of beautiful ferns at different stages of their growth. I went through my hike creating a fern necklace that I just had to make, so Voila...

The pendant is made of copper sheet which I sawed, sanded ,oxidized and sanded again. It has a great antique feel to it. I made little charms with copper that I stamped with a sunburst design. I used moss jasper, wood and black bone beads on copper wire that has been shaped, hammered and oxidized . Finally I added a signature charm with 2 leaves stamped on it.
