this is what I made yesterday, we were a bit limited with materials and were supposed to be making one square piece of glass, but I didn't want too,lol. So I asked her if I could make some pendants and hangings and a lot of others did the same. We used mostly copper wire and foils with some glass thrown in too. I made an owl for rosie.

Before firing, hope they look ok once done Rolling Eyes

Hmmmm, Bob got them today and I am so disappointed. Pendants are fine, but hangings look like they have been knocked or slipped in firing!!

They look great, Jo - such a pity about the hanging decorations and the earrings. Have you asked the tutor yet about what could have happened?

They are super, there's just one that's a bit squiffy to my untrained eye, I'm sure you'll be able to do something with it.
Will you be having another go?
