I am always looking for copper to make into a necklace.
One afternoon, about 6 months ago, I was wondering through a Lowes and came across some really cool looking, copper joints. These beautiful pieces of copper have been just sitting in a box on my desk. I have finally put one of them to use.
I love how it turned out.
Making jewelry out of inexpensive things is
Prodigious.
(Word of the day)
Things you need.
- Chain (42 inches)
- Copper pipe joints (Lowes, Home Depot)
- Jump rings (Wal-mart, Michaels)
- Clasp (Wal-mart, Michaels)
- Pliers
Measure your chain
each piece 14 inches.
add one of your jump rings to one end.
Add your clasp and your other jump ring to the other 3 pieces of chain.
Slide on your copper piece.
That is all there is to it.
Easy right?
Have a fantastic Wednesday.
Lots of <3,
Anne

This looks simple yet fabulous, and It looks very easy to make! I'd try these myself but I have a few thoughts. Do you think the yellow gold would look good on copper with the patina? I like the blue-green hues of tarnished copper, and I hope the pipe joint colors the same way.
