For the birds!




This is what happens when you have a bunch of bamboo tiles that you don't know what to do with! I took some varnish and tinted it blue with watercolors. I took old sewing patterns and painted over them with the varnish, and I cut the images from an antique book page that I had purchased. A few layers of varnish over top that and Volia!! I wired them together with a very thin copper wire and brown bugle beads and finished it off with a copper toggle clasp. I am going to have to shorten it, as it is too big for me (that's a miracle, because most I make end up being too short!) Sorry for the crappy pic, I'll get a better one.
