Another Christmas gift, this one for Ayn. One of the nice things about jewelry making is that less can be more, and if you have an great focal, like the ridiculously awesome Wonder Woman cupcake charm from The Bird and The Bee (I want all of their superhero cupcake pendants, especially the Thor one), you don't need or even want to do something complicated. So for this one I just added a few thematically appropriate beads, all acrylic (a bonus of making the whole necklace incredibly lightweight), to a silver-plate chain, and made an extender with the red acrylic star dangle.

My friend A. is a HUGE Tokidoki fan, and a comics fan, so she has been collecting the Marvel Tokidoki figures like a fiend. The other day she said that they would be great on a necklace or something to wear to Chicago Comicon this (now past) weekend. And I was all, "Shiny project ENGAGE!"

So I made her these from her collection: The Fantastic Four charm bracelet, and the Marvel Villains charm necklace, featuring Doc Ock, Red Skull, and the adorable Tiny Doom. The bracelet is primarily a blue mix Precosia Czech fire polished glass, and the necklace is primarily two-tone color crackle glass and silver Czech fire polished glass. Bead charms done on silver-plate head-pins.
