Domino pimping

Proper sized dominos, while much easier to detail and work with, do somehow feel a bit too chunky, especially when they hang on their own. I thought I might try to 'embed' them more in a piece of jewellery and this is one of my first attempts.


I scrutinised some jewellery making sites as well as Youtube and found out how to use a headpin.
 :o)
Added some picasso jasper beads, some homemade paper beads and lots of jump rings and ribbon. I wanted to put the ribbon all the way around the neck, but that wouldn't be comfortable to wear, would it?
Anyway I think it makes the domino look less bulky somehow.
I'll play around with it some more.
