It's been many years since I did beading and such, but figure I need to hang out in some of the other forums besides just the yarn ones. So here goes... finished this today. Chain mail made with 2 sizes of jump rings with crystals. Got everything on sale @ AC Moore last week.

That is BeAuTiFuL!!! happy Thanks for sharing. The goldtone chainmaille and blue bead just pop together. happy So did you make this for yourself?

I've yet to make any of the chainmaille or do any of the wire work with beads. I've purchased some from other jewelry artists and they are do inspiring.

Well it starts out as mine, but when a friend or relative sees it and likes it, it usually becomes theirs.

You'd have no problem. I however couldn't find my jump ring separator tool (nor did AC Moore have any the day I got the rest of the stuff) so the pads of my poor fingers took a beating opening and closing those puppies. I could have used pliers, but fingers work quicker.

I'm brand new to this site. Did you design the pattern yourself or is is something you saw somewhere. I make chainmaille jewelry and am curious where you found the pattern.

I purchased the book @ AC Moore - think it retails for $7.95 - but during the time there was some % discount. It is called "Easy Chain Mail." Picture below:
