I drew this snake when I was about 16 years old. My best friend made a slip for my very first cell phone and added this shape to the front. Many years have gone since then, the slip has been lost somewhere along the way, but I remembered the snake and decided to give the idea the second life.
Easy to say, hehe... Surprisingly, it was very hard to make it actually! So I took 4 long pieces of gold color wire, and made two strands, each consisting of 2 twisted ones. Then those two were also thoroughly twisted and hammered. After that I curved the desired shape and wire wrapped it with swarovsky crystals.
That’s about a half of the full time, because to make a chain of crystals, each accurately wire wrapped took even longer. That’s the best time for a light comedy, so I watched a dozen episodes of my favorite mystery show before I got done.
All in all, It took me a whole whi-i-i-ile to make this “Gem snake” Necklace, but it was 100% worth it, I love the result!
