Here they are. The personalised Christmas presents we made with the owners in mind. We hope they enjoy wearing them as much as we enjoyed making them. They’re all either rhodium plated brass as a base for the pendants, with only a couple that are sterling silver. The colours are all made by cold enamelling, or resin casting.
We love what we’ve achieved and each and every one in this post has gone to a Christmas home, as well as a few others that didn’t get in the photographs as they were still curing.
As a hobby, this is great, as the kids could be involved. Yes, it did mean taking some important steps to ensure they were safe with mixing the chemicals, and I wouldn’t do this with very young children, but for my older boys, it has been a great way to give christmas presents that actually mean something to them, and a handmade gift for the recipients, both at school and at home.
I’m actually really proud of what we achieved in such a short space of time. I love the drop heart pendant, so plan on ordering more of those blanks. We only had one, which was lovely when it was done.
Love these! Not sure I’d trust myself with chemicals thought!
It’s actually simpler than it looks.
