Ornament Thursday – Motherhood

April 24, 2008

This month’s Ornament Thursday is “Motherhood”. I first created this pendant for my own mom…the pendant is super easy to make, and then it’s personalized with Swarovski crystals representing the birthstones for her children and grandchildren. Another twist would be to add charms that picture things Mom likes – if she loves the beach, use a theme of starfish, shells, lighthouses and fish! Add a couple of aquamarine rough chips or drilled beach glass that look like water. The possibilities are endless with the number of charms available today!

Full Instructions for the UR Charmed Mother’s Necklace are on Beading Help Web.

The other Ornament Thursday gals have been hard at work as well….check out their blogs for more great projects!
