So my time healing up on the couch is making me a little stir-crazy. Managed to bring a few supplies and sit with the sleepy miss for a while, and I finally tried a project I have been meaning to for a while: the wire bird nest pendant. I love it, turns out they’re fairly easy – even on pain meds. ;)
I just used some 24-gauge silver-plated wire and some glass pearls (since that’s what I had) and with a little help from my jewelry pliers and wirecutters, I had myself a nice little pendant in about 15 minutes.
Yes, that would be said pain meds in the background. :P Getting operated on is so inconvenient, lol! And blogging from my phone really isn’t the same, either. Can’t wait til I’m better!! I link to these fabulous parties!
I really love this! Great job!
Thanks so much for linking up to Tuesday Talent Show! I would love to have you stop by and link up again with more great projects!

15 minutes? Wow, it looks fabulous!
You've done such a nice job. sorry you were couch-bound,..not much fun. At least you were productive.
Great ideas. Love it. thanks for sharing
Lovely, hope you feel better too. Thanks for sharing at Bacon Time.
ok, just googled it and found a video tutorial!!!! you are totally making Christmas easy for me this year. Thanks so much!!!!!! feel better soon!
ok, this is adorable. I actually got one for a gift (very expensive!) and would LOVE to make them for gifts for friends. Maybe I am a little slow, lol, but how did you actually do this? help! love this! Kelly
Your's turned out great! I like that you made your own ring to hook to a chain rather than a jump ring. I've made some of these and they are so easy, but I did the jump ring. Looks Great!!
Aren't these fun? I made one for myself a while back, then my daughter had to have one, my mother in law, a girl friend, the girl friend's boss, my daughter's friend… I'm warning you, you better not ever wear it outside your house!
Get better soon!!!
LOVE THIS…maybe have to try to make one for myself! POP ART MINIS
Popped over from Tater Tots and Jello…. That turned out so cute! I have been doing some couch bound crafting myself. I made a ton of clothespin magnets because they were easy to make while sitting on the couch! I hope you recover and get off the couch quickly!
What a pretty charm! I hope you get to feeling better soon!
really love this!! looks great – even on pain meds! or maybe it looks great because of the pain meds?? ;) hmmm…maybe I should get me some o' those… ;)

This turned out really well, love the little nest. I make Jewelry but haven't done much wire wrapping. I may have to try this one…it's so cute. I have glass pearls too and love them.
Hope you are better soon.
Take care!

I love all things bird and this is beautiful. I'm sure it's a blessing just to be able to craft while healing. Why does laying on the couch doing nothing sound so glamorous when we're busy but is totally tiring when not?
