I’ve done a lot of chainmail over the years, just as a hobby. but I mostly only do a few styles. I thought it’d be nice to post some pictures of my work here. 🙂 These are some of the bracelets, pendants and necklaces I’ve made. I use only anodized aluminum rings, so each piece comes out very lightweight and easy to wear.
I had the opportunity to play around with making jewelry out of feathers this month. I got a bunch of feathers from some beautiful birds at a nearby zoo – no worries! All these feathers were dropped naturally by several different types of very happy birds. 🙂 I love how they came out, but I need to devise some ways to weigh them down a little. They flutter too easily when you wear them.
