I just love these little beetle charms! You can get these, and tons of other cool stuff from B’Sue Boutiques – a great supplier of American made brass findings.
Necklace made using an old skeleton key and a beetle charm with tiny czech glass dangles. Another beetle is crawling up the chain, which is from a vintage cuckoo clock.
Two pairs of earrings using the same beetle charms. On one pair I buffed back the finish to show the coppery highlights and on the other I added a little Gilders paste for color.
Love these! And thanks for posting the source.
You’re welcome! B’Sue also has a group on Flickr, is on Facebook and has an Etsy shop. She loves to help jewelry designers and she will promote your work if you use her products!
Sounds like everybody wins that way 🙂
