Tiny Tangles

I did some tiny tangling yesterday, resulting in some new jewelry! I have wanted to do something with pretty glass tiles, and it finally occurred to me that tiny tangles would be the answer.

I did a series of tangles to fit the size of the glass (1 inch square), and scanned, printed, and hand colored a couple with color pencils. They are then adhered to the back of the glass with dimensional lacquer. With a bale and a cord for the necklace, it's a beautiful pendant!

 

I also tried the necklace style on the left (above), but I like the glass pendant a lot more. The colored tangles also add another dimension, which is nice.

In a couple of days I'm headed to the Santa Fe Artisan's Expo at the Buffalo Thunder Casino, which I'm really looking forward to! I'm taking two workshops and will be watching many demos and ogling lots of art supplies. I should probably leave the Visa at home...
