| I am truly fascinated
by all kind of jewellery but on top of my list stand pendant
necklaces. There is absolutely nothing which can be more beautiful.
It isn't the glimmer I like. I often find myself enchanted
by a plain and tarnish pendant necklace. I try not to pay
too much attention to gems - sapphires, rubies, emeralds and
diamonds, so I am not really taken away by shiny things. And
I surely cannot afford to have a necklace like that. What
I like best are unique pendant necklaces which have a story
of their own and have a character.
My favorite pendant necklace was not originally designed as
pendant jewellery. It was made up of a piece of pewter and
it was a figure I liked to put on my mantle piece. The figure
depicts a wizard, not an ordinary one but such without a long
beard, a straight cap and long robes, and there is not a red
stone in the wizard's staff, either. On the contrary, it is
a typical but an eccentric pendant necklace.

The only thing that helps you recognize this figure is actually
a wizard is the staff inscribed with imaginary runes that
he holds. My wizard figure has a big casual hat with a puff
ball, chubby cheeks, and a large friendly smile. He looks
quite similar to a regular guy, so people often ask me about
him. This is what I call a good pendant necklace, such that
draws attention to you not for its gems but for its uniqueness
and charm.
Making your own pendant necklace is not a very difficult
task but the majority of people prefer purchasing them from
stores. With a little creativeness you can make almost any
miniature a lovely pendant necklace. Sometimes you might need
to solder of bend the material, knowing something about shaping
wire might also be helpful but most of the times you wouldn't
need to do that in order to make a pendant necklace. All you
need to have is patience and desire to learn. Having these
two, you can easily make your own unique pendant necklace.
