I have always wanted to make jewelry around specific interests I have without having them look homemade but I’m just not that talented at beadwork and still tackling the steep learning curve for 3d modeling from scratch. However, I have made several pendant charms for myself and gifts for friends with the Shapeways EZ Pendant Creator. It is truly a DIY dream come true if you are brand new to 3d printing.
Here is my first project; a lion pendant charm in 14K gold in honor of my son who was born in August and is a Leo.
I got so many compliments on it, I videotaped a quick step by step tutorial. Check it out and start making pendant charms for yourself and don’t forget this is a great personal gift for loved ones. I sent my best friend a cat charm last Christmas and a Buddha charm to my daughter for her birthday. Before long, my family and friends might start putting in orders and I will have to open a shop on Shapeways!
I truly appreciate you attaching the video link! I am in awe at your creativity.
