All shiny bright in the sky now.
Here's how it came about:
I started with recycled copper flashing
Cut it all wonky and pounded it. Washed it up after that.
I counter enameled it in translucent blue.
Made a stencil and torch enameled the front in black and white.
I then added my own chain of vintage glass beads and accents with strands of crystals cascading from reclaimed silver toned chain.
Hangs just above the belly button. Very chic.

I love that picture! I must say, the endless pictures of him inspired me greatly. I also like the little bit of sparkle you added to the piece. It's fab. Thanks for making a piece from scratch....the enamel is great!!
