Making Jewellery - turning an Earring into a necklace


For the last few years I've had a broken bling earring lurking in my craft box awaiting that flash of inspiration that would give it a new lease of life.  Last week I received the gemstone kit I'd ordered and whilst playing with a few bits and bobs from it I realised that the earring just might make a nice pendant for some faceted black onyx rounds and some AB coated Swarovski crystals on the lower half and in the top section the onyx is "floating".  

I had a go at making a display stand with a trifold card - a bit on the wee side but it did the trick once I wrapped the wires round!
