A pair of domed sterling silver overlay Hummingbird pendants, or possibly charms, that had been on my bench for months waiting for me to get around to finishing.
Made smaller than the Hummingbird I originally created in the past for my mother-in-law, these could be used as a small pendant, or even a charm on a bracelet (which is what one of them will be).
When a friend saw my first Hummingbird pendant, he wanted one for his mother, too. I told him I would be happy to make one for her, but he later mentioned that his mom had an allergy to silver. However, he said she could wear it on her charm bracelet, as she just couldn’t have it constantly resting against her skin, as with a pendant.
As the original Hummingbird pendant was really too large for a charm bracelet, I made these a little smaller, shrinking the design I created for the first pendant with a photocopier to the size I was wanting. I made two, in case I wasn’t happy with one of them, but they both turned out nicely.
I’m not sure which one my friend will choose for his mom, but whichever one isn’t claimed has already been spoken for by my wife (and how could I turn down my #1 customer?). 😉
