Pendants for my BFF's

Oh my gosh. I seem to be running so far behind these days. With Christmas parties and all the prep I've had very little time to blog. I did want to share two little gifts I made for my two BFF's. Since they have now received them I can show them to you.
This one was for my  GF who Loves anything France.
Of course it has an Eiffel tower and lots of vintage jewelry pieces.
 I started with a heart shape that I fashioned from a piece of brass
then added all the elements.

This one has Angels, crosses, pieces from a Rosary and lots of vintage jewels.
Again started with a brass heart.

Here's how I packaged them. In little pull top tins.
Yes they Loved them!!!
Hope your all enjoying the season of giving.
I have lots to share with you soon.
 So much happy mail. Just need time to photograph it all!!

    Lynn, these are stunning and I would have been very surprised if they hadn't been loved.

    Time is flying way too fast - I can't believe we are only 5 days away from Christmas...yikes!!!

    How could they not adore these precious gifts! Both are stunning to say the least! Did you say it is Christmas?? I am getting ready to wrap my hubby's gifts, all others have been mailed or given! The cards went out yesterday and today! Did I wait until the last minute or what! Still need to do "meal" shopping, but it will just be the two of us, so no biggy there! Have a wonderful week! Hugs!
