For Christmas I asked my mom for some items to try my hand at stamped metal jewelry. I bought myself a necklace for $20 off of Etsy and like the idea of being able to personalize items for myself and others. I've tried out a few random things, but this is my first full project. It is a lot harder to get a full print of a letter and to get letters in the right location with proper spacing and orientation on the stamping blanks than I expected.
It is too difficult to get a good close up picture of the stamping on the necklace, but the square holds the three names of my nieces and nephew and the two bronze pieces hold the names of the parents. I used ribbon and decorative white and purple beads to make it more feminine. If Mindy wants to switch it out or play with the overall setup of the necklace etc. I won't mind in the least.
Mindy will be getting a lot of random craft gifts I'm sure. I really like the stamping, but am kind of at a loss for ideas of things to make for now. Ideas welcome!
