Hammered Heart - Be My Valetine! Mother's Heart - Class
Hearts and sparkles, won't you be mine? Hammer some copper, wrap some sterling for detail, make a few jumprings, dangle a whole assortment of sparklies, then turn a bit of wire and some cord into a necklace to show off your lovely new creation. Come join me and play with wire. You deserve a day out with the girls.
The large heart as shown is about 2" tall, made of heavy gauge copper wire, hammered flat in strategic places and textured, then oxidized to bring out the depth. Sterling wire may be available.
Choose family birthstones instead of Valentine colors to make a family heirloom Mother's Heart. What a perfect gift for mom or grandmom!
Or, choose Your favorite color pallet instead.
