A Pretty Little Brooch


I have had the parts for this piece for a long time, but finally got it made this week. I really enjoyed making something different. I used a kilt pin finding, made a patera piece and bead charms and decorated with a piece of chain.


There are two challenges I am going to enter with this, one is there The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge and the other is Tuesday Throwdown both of which want to see anything but a card!
And also
Bling it On - anything goes with an added charm.

This is lovely, patera is a new word on me - is that the rectangular bit? I'd like to make some pendants like that.
