"Bullet Bling Key Chains"

Here you go! 

 This has been my new angle on how to recycle used shell casings.  I got lucky when my dad had a small bucket stowed away in his old shop.  With that treasure find, I was all set to begin my new love.  These are the first ones to be made, and all with genuine Swarovski crystals.  Swarovski is the highest quality crystal you can buy, and shines like diamonds. 

 So keep in mind ladies if you are looking for something unique or if someone you know has everything, these make a great gift.  I will be posting these to my Luulla site next week and they will vary in price.  

"Bullet Bling Pendant"

Ok, so besides makes quilt tops since Christmas, I have also been playing with bling.  I am not an obnoxious blinger, I just think some things need subtle enhancement to bring out the item your inspired by or working on.  With being a country girl at heart I love the idea of using recycled shell casings for jewelry.  With more concealed carry women or "country chics" and women who now hunt along side men for sport, I feel they still need to remain girly and need a little bling. 

This particular pendant was my first with a 12g shotgun shell and I used acrylic crystals  "mistake".  It was a trial run so I didn't mind much.  All future pendants, ear rings, key chains, hairpins, etc will be strictly Swarovski crystals. Yes they are more expensive but they shine like diamonds........  and you get what you pay for.
