Bringing Steempunk to Steemit. The Steemit Pendant.

We had the Steemit hat, we had the Steemit T....

I give you: The Steemit Pendant!

'cause it's important to accessorise.

I hope you guys love it!
I'm waiting on an order of silver to arrive so I thought I'd make a Steem Pendant, just for fun.

A Steemit treat for all you Steemit lovers. Tell me your thoughts!

P.S. I've tried to up the amount of energy & hours that I work lately, to get my jewellery business going & I have found myself addicted to Steemit. Hence the Steemit Pendant!! My lovely boyfriend @hadestraining suggested that maybe I should concentrate on my work & not spend too much time on Steemit & I believe he is right!

It's 10PM GMT here & I am logging out.

Until Tomorrow My Trusty Steem Pals!

Love,

Very nice, what's the metal?
p.s you never really log out of Steemit, it's always on your mind (and phone at 2am). I haven't worked out how to shake the addiction yet, we may have to set up a Steemit rehab clinic if we get locked out of our accounts again.

It's Stirling silver

I'm learning silversmithing at the moment. I don't know if it's from one piece or if there is some soldering, but the finish is very good. I can't tell how it's done, so perfection!

Thank you! It's made entirely from Sterling Silver Square Wire. The outer circle was formed using a ring mandrel, I soldered it to the straight wire it's hanging from, then I used a triangular needle file to make a score on either side of the tips of the wire & bent the tips to create the 'Steem' - I soldered the scores to get rid of the small gap that was left, then it's all soldered to the outer circle :), filed, sanded down with various grades & polished using a Dremel - felt wheel & Tripoli. It's quite simple once you have a few techniques under your belt! I hope you enjoy silversmithing! It's so fun when you get into it! Let me know if you ever need any help - Although I'm sure your teacher knows better than myself - I just learn by experimenting with it really, also have a few good books!

Wow, thanks for the advice. I'll follow your work.

this should be official merchandise it's beautiful.

Thank you :) :)

I have made some steemit earrings with a 3d pen. Of course not so good looking like your pendant.

I for one love it! You're super talented and I'm proud of ya girl! 🤓

Thank you lovely :)

That's quite nice actually.
Have you considered creating a physical steemit coin? That would be a neat thing.

That would be cool! Thanks :)
