Description

A necklace full of orangey goodness :D - Satsuma's felt is made from silk throwsters waste, silk noil fibre, wool roving, wool nepps and organza ribbon. I added a large coppery metallic vintage nailhead bead, more glass beads, hand embroidery stitches (oyster, colonial knot and cast-on), and finally, I whip-stitched around the edges in juicy orange cotton thread.

The felt is set onto a vintage brass tag background to make a pendant (3cm x 6cm, or 1 1/8" x 2 1/4" approx.), and the necklace is finished off with a delicate antiqued brass chain, which measures 18", and has a lobster clasp closure.

I loved making this pendant. She is one-of-a-kind, and there will never be another quite like her! I hope whoever gets to take her home will love her just as much!

Thanks for looking~!
