Belmont Pendant Tutorial
My inspiration for today's video comes from Jenni Jones and her New England Bead Society LIVE Design NIght! She is just a jewelry-making wizard! I saw her pendant and immediately thought to myself how would I make that - so here is my go at it. Jenni does such an awesome way of capturing the light within her pieces, I hope this inspires you in the same way.
This lovely Belmont Pendant features a gorgeous Potomac Crystal Rivoli in the center, giving it a decorative effect. This pendant makes a perfect gift for a loved one!
