The two necklace. This piece is the easiest of the four necklaces, I think, because the design has been clearest in my mind since the beginning. I love the swoops of the 2s, and want to use them to create this lovely set of drops. So, first I spent a couple of days sawing out five number 2 shapes. I swear, I was dreaming about the number 2 by the end of this.
After what seemed like endless sawing and filing, I started stamping the second verse. I was terrified I'd reverse a letter and have to start all over, but I managed to stamp correctly. (If you see a spelling error DON'T TELL ME.) Then I went out in the 35 degree weather and pounded these on my driveway to add texture. I was freezing by the end of it. The texture doesn't look so great in these quickie photos for the blog, but it'll look good when I get out the photo cube and lights out for the final product shot.
