$8.00
This is a listing for a full color 12-page PDF with step by step instructions how to make this lovely necklace, the ring and earrings. The bezels build up very quicky and are really fun to make. You will immediately receive an e-mail with a link to download the tutorial - you will not receive the items shown in the photos.
The jewelry is reversible. On one side an 8mm chaton peeks through the center of the wheel-bezel and the other side there is a little periwinkle flower. Compare the two sides in the photo of the earrings.
The first time I heard about a Catherine wheel was about the age of 20. I was a super dynamic 'junior' secretary supporting a Maltese biologist and she said that it was a type of spinning fireworks, and... that it described me well... lol. It was a compliment. This joyful spinning wheel is what inspired the name of the little wheel shapes I made to bezel the 8mm crystal chatons.
