Cat charm book mark



Hi all
I've been so busy with selling shop stuff, I've not had time to do any beading in the last couple of weeks,
but now at last
I finally managed to finish the cat charm that I wanted to borrow other half's Dremel for, and here it is in full glorious technicolour!!
I bought the Tibetan Silver bookmarks from an eBay shop based in China, there were three different designs in the pack of 12, this one is the 'Sun, Moon, and Stars' design, which I thought was the most appropriate for the cat theme.
The little cat charm is a mini Mirror tile, which I needed to drill the hole in to accommodate the bail.....
(Talk about breaking out in a cold sweat, I felt certain I'd end up either drilling through the work bench, or decapitating the poor little pussy cat completely)
I finished it off with a silver lined glass bugle and one black small bicone just for a bit of contrast, it looked a bit monotonous with just the silver and mirror. These were threaded onto an eye-pin then attached to small length of silver chain.
Hope everyone is keeping well
Happy beading..
