I was sent two 'die-formed' pieces of copper just after Christmas from Art Jewelry Magazine
 |
| This was one of them after I punched a bunch of holes in it... |
 |
| First coat of enamel |
 |
| I made some of my red enameled poppies to decorate it.. they were suppose to go around the bump but I couldn't get them to look good on that side so they went in the bump! |
 |
| Then I built it a hand made copper and bead chain... |
 |
| The other piece was oval (I did trim it) The copper was heat treated then'riveted' to an enameled backing and attached to a 'me-made' copper chain |
 |
Couldn't find my liver of sulpher so tried a boiled egg... Never again. Mainly because I've found my liver of sulpher (right where it was suppose to be - and will never misplace it again)! and my DH thought it was a major waste of an egg!

I love the poppy pendant especially you did a great job with both I have always liked the look of enamel just not got anywhere I could set up for doing it.
My magnolias are almost over now just a few flowers left, the east wind got magnolia Vulcan ( I posted a picture in a previous post ) before the winds came but Leonard Messel is still holding on for a bit. Camellias have been exceptionally good this year, I think the lovely warm weather we got last summer helped!
