We all keep pining lots of stuff in pinterest…(I pin a lot of stuff to make!!) but do we really do anything with them.??…..Sometime back I decided to make a conscious effort to work on prohects from Pinterest and have been waiting to show them off here. Finally I have got the perfect opportunity for it. The Pinterest challenge!! Read all about it here
Valentine week is still on but am taking break and presenting a project that I did based on an image I pinned in Pinterest.
I call this design The mirror bib…its inspired from a headband made by Erica in PS. I made this…
She in turn was inspired by Nina Ricci’s head turner and had used mirrors and fun gemstones on a hairband.
Inspired by this I decided to make a bib necklace. I used differenct shapes of mirror (round, square and diamond) and glued them on to a felt base which I later backed with a piece of leather. I created the chain by connecting jump rings (Chain maille) and finally finished off with a Toggle clasp

The necklace looks better than in the pics (I couldnt control the reflection while clicking pictures) and one of my students wore it at a college photo shoot and created a lot of interest.. So What do you think of it?
Then as I am entering this for the Pinterest challenge 5, a little about how the challenge works…
