They were both flower-shaped - one is the size of the palm of my hand, the other is a little smaller. When I saw them, I remembered this post, so I bought them both (for a quarter!), found some chain I had lying around at home, cut it to the proper size and slid it down the pin, clasped it and viola! Bottle necklaces! Thought you might like this idea for the next time you wanted one!Katienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-70290179086950913142010-06-11T00:10:37.227-04:002010-06-11T00:10:37.227-04:00STEAMPUNK DINING ROOM!?

Couldn't have all that stuff laying around for little mouths. But now that's she older...I like this steampunk as home decor idea.

Her jewelry is really awesome, too, all upcycled and aged goodness, though uber-expensive now.<br /><br />Next time, instead of having John cut the loops off, just remove the charm and add some crystal dangles for an effect more like the Steampunk jewelry. Also, instead of regular chain you can try rosary chain, which has beads strung on each link. It's also easy to make youself if you find some great old looking beads. For basic jewelry how-to's, check out beadandbutton.com. <br /><br />Yes, I make jewelry, and as soon as I get a site up I'll send it to you. On a more personal note, I want to thank you for all the laughter. I've been extremely sick, and finding Cakewrecks was wonderful--I read through the whole site!
