^.^ My Small Pendant ^.^ - Part 02
With special thanks to @scrawly who suggested I should make a new post and share with you how I made my pendant. ^.^
There's a very cute little shop in my town called Mariposa with all the materials I used for this project. Don't worry if you can't find the same ones, you can choose whatever you like.
I'm just sharing the process to show how easy it is to make your own pendant on a choker. ^.^
I'm not very familiar with all the material's names in English, that is why I'll provide more pictures than words for this tutorial.
So really hope you like it.
I start with my project in Photoshop which you can see in one of my previous posts here.
I created two versions of one character:
I also adjusted some of my older illustrations and made a sample for printing:
And here are all the materials I bought. You will also need pliers, but I have not taken pictures of it.
The velour's strap is in a color suitable for the red-haired version of the heroine. I usually buy 2m in different colors depending on the chosen picture.
Next step was to cut the small pictures to fit the metal bed/base of the pendant. The size is 4x3cm.
After that I used an Universal Silicone Sealant to stick the illustration to the metal base and the glass on top.
I leave the pendant for now (because the silicone needs a bit of time to dry) and work on the ends of the choker.
Then I used the small rings to attach the metal feathers to the ends of the choker.
At last, I used another small ring to attach the pendant to the velour's strap.
The final result looks like this:
Hope you like it!
Have a great day, everyone!
^.^ Thanks for stopping by! ^.^
Im alway a fan of art and hand crafts... scrawly is a vote getter, I say you really have talents in this stuffs.. I cant be wrong but days from now I know youre on your way to a big vote...just be consistent
Thank you very much, @kendallron! ^.^ Really glad you like it! <3
Yeah, I hope so. I've been consistent for almost 4 months now and don't plan on stopping. ;) Found many great friends and fellow artists, great community and have such fun. But what I love the most is that I can not only share my art (mostly personal stuff) but also get paid for it. Ten years ago this was only a dream and now is a reality.

Thank you, Spidey! ^.^ <3 I forgot to share that there are different shapes and sizes of the metallic elements, but these were the cutest ones for me.
For a first tutorial it could be a lot worse... XD
Wow, I didn't know that making a pendant can be quite straightforward. Thank you katty-chan for creating a step by step blog about your beautiful pendant creation! The materials that you chose for the pendant are so cute, the lil hearts and feathers <3333.
And I already told you before, but the girl you drew is very lovely! :D

Thank you, Scrawly! ^.^
It's quite simple tutorial, because I'm not very good explaining in english, so I decided to take as many photos as possible. I was glad I still had these spare parts at home with me. That was the last metal base and glass, I should go and by more from the store.
Thanks, @zak.totkoff! ^.^
I made couple of these pendants as presents for my close friends. But I'll also consider selling some. ;)
I'm impressed! Simply love it!
Thank you, dear! ^.^ Glad you like it! ^.^
