2 Hobby Lobby Product Inspirations

A simple fashion add-on never looked so sentimental. Deck a wire-wrapped key with carefully chosen happy-memory trinkets and pendants, and those special moments won’t pass you by. Craft Tip: We glued brass tie tacks to the back for pinning.

Headed somewhere? Not without accessories. For this ring-and-cuff combo, we stitched gears onto a leather strap then used connectors and jump rings to join the two pieces for a strong and confident we’re-goin’-places vibe.

Here’s a time-saver: Put the Neo-Victorian feel into the traditional hoop earring by adding a gear charm to a 16mm jump ring, finishing with glued-on gadgets for extra oomph of techs-pert style in just minutes.

Mixing charms, pendants and the like–in all types of metals and various shapes and sizes–means your personalized fashion statements are just a few snips and twists away from a little bit girly, a whole lotta edgy and completely you.

If you dream it, you can steam it—steampunk, that is. The black-and-brass gear pendant comes as is, but we crafted the light-bulb drop using a tiny globe-shaped vial, jewelry wire and a filigree bead cap.

Dress from head to toe (if you dare), and start with the earrings! Here’s how to replicate these dainty dangles. Supplies:• Findings starter pack• Earring pendants• Gear Mix

• Beading wire • Jewelry pliers

Step 1: Attach gear to ear wire, and then connect pendant as shown. Repeat for multiple earrings.

Step 2: Cut length of wire, and wrap around pendant as shown, adding gears as desired. Circle wire around loop at top of pendant several times to secure. Repeat on all remaining pendants.
