Steampunk Pendant and Bead Cap

I love the look of steampunk so I had a go at making a pendant out of an old watch my Dad gave me.
I filled the inside with ice resin.

I also reworked a pendant I made using  Iza Malczyk's tutorial. Iza is so talented-her jewellery is amazing.

Check out Sarah's cool necklace.

Steampunk: Futuristic machines based on science fiction or fantasy are powered by steam-as in the Victorian era. One of my all time favourite movies- The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen- has great examples of the use of steampunk. The Nautilaus, Nemo's boat, and his car are amazing examples.
