Birds of a feather

Do you watch Portlandia?

I tried to resist.

I fought the good fight and told Brent it is too stupid..

a total waste of time.

Then this episode aired and I was sold.

And a little embarrassed because I immediately kind of like anything that has a bird on it.

Gotta hate when I'm typical. ;)

Anyhoo, a friend of mine had a birfday

(yeah I said birfday... it's what all the cool kids are saying)

and I made her this sweet necklace.

Now don't look to close.

I am a newby at this jewelry making game

and man am I hooked!

It is so much fun!

I got the idea for the lace pendent from my favorite local jeweler.

She was selling something similar at the farmers market a few weeks ago.

I would have LOVED to support her but it was a wee bit to pricey for me.  

Sad day.

The other two pendants came in a pack of three.

I picked the two I wanted and then I shortened the chain on one of them to make it a little more asymmetrical.

My friend loved her necklace.

I did to (I really wanted to keep it!)

Do you like it? Do you want to know how I made it? I was thinking about making one for myself. So, if your interested I'll take some pictures. Let me know!

xoxo

I love to party at all these fun places!
