Custom Photo Pendant

Wanted to share this custom photo charm I did for a client. I love the way the close up looks with the beveled glass tile. Isn't Molly's face so adorable. On the back I put an "M" for Molly. What a wonderful Mother's Day gift these would make. To order one, just click on My Bchic Designs etsy store on the right!

Juicy Couture Charms

I had a great Customer request some Juicy Couture Charms for her Boutique. I had so much fun creating these. I am such a Juicy fan, I think I might have to keep one of these for myself! My favorite is the pink and white Zebra Print in the Juicy letters, and love the way the backs with the writing and the crowns came out! I think some of my best designs came from creating with others to bring their ideas to fruition.

Initial Charms for a Customer

I did some Initial charms for a client and liked them so well I have put them in my etsy store. I am in love with the harlequin, houndstooth and zebra prints in black and white. Everything I do lately, it seems I am using these three designs, a lot of the time in the black and white theme. I used the houndstooth and zebra in these new charms with a Hot Pink polka dot oval frame with a pink letter. I think black and hot Pink look so striking together!

Shadow Box Soldered Pendant with Zebra Print

(Click on the pictures to enlarge)


I Just Created a Shadow Box Style Charm! My first try at the Box style pendant. I have done some of the stacked glass, 3D style pendants, but have had this idea floating around in my head for a shadow Box Charm that would hold a blingy somethin/somethin. I had to really work and rework the solder to get it where I wanted it, but very rewarding and I really like the finished product.

I did learn a lot, and I think the next ones will even be better. I had to share on my blog, before listing in my etsy store. Thanks to my sweet baby girl, Candice, for the great pictures, anything would look wonderful on her!

I am selling both the pendant alone and as a blingy necklace in my shop, so for more pictures, go to my etsy shop by clicking on the link at the right hand side of my blog.

Ball chain Soldered Charm Necklaces

I have put some nicely priced Ball Chain and Pendant necklaces in my etsy store. I love the way the Valentine one came out. It is in the 3D, stacked glass style, I have recently been doing. Of course, How could I resist doing a Twilight charm/necklace, so popular right now.

New Collage Pendants

I thought I would try some new style charms for Valentine's Day. My Dear Hubby got me a book about soldered charms for Christmas. He is so thoughtful, always trying to surprise me and give me something I would like. The author did some collage, 3D type charms. I have seen these around but have never tried any. You make them by stacking layers of glass and cutting out designs to put on each layer. They have never really been my style, but I thought it might be fun to try some.
I had just purchased some wonderful, new Valentine Designs, so have used some of them in the new charms. I really like the way the Ed Hardy and the Paper Doll Angel turned out, so am showing them here.
