Helm Flower Chain Maille Set

This helm flower chain maille set (the weave is also called parallel flower chain maille) was my Christmas gift to myself. I made it on Christmas Eve to wear it during the Christmas lunch at hubby's sister's.

It is made of sterling silver and copper rings (all handcut from wire) and it's quite an elegant set, even though I couldn't capture it so well in the photos.

Easy to make, it took 2 ring sizes. Here are some of the photos of the set.

Full Persian Chain Maille Bracelet

I miss chain maille, haven't done it in several months, so when my fingers started to itch for picking up the pliers and rings, I gave in. And here is the result, a Full Persian bracelet with bright aluminum rings ordered a long time ago from The Ring Lord. I might make another one in sterling silver, but with smaller rings, to be more feminine so to speak. I find the Full Persian weave quite chunky and more for guys than gals.

So here are a few photos of what I made 2 days ago.

Copper Leaf Pendant

This leaf pendant is made of copper and it's loosely based on a Nicole Hanna tutorial using wire wrapping technique. I bought recently a couple of her newer tutorials and my fingers were itching to make something. The pendant is quite small, with the bail is just about 4 cm (2.5") and it's fun and casual to wear with a chain or a black cord. It has a green seadbead as adornment.
