Trinket #275 - Nevermore Necklace

The majority of my day today was spent outdoors under a cold gray sky at Richmond's Edgar Allan Poe Museum for the launch of my new book Richmond Macabre. It was truly a melancholy afternoon, but a great time was had by all! In honor of the day, I put together a Poe-inspired necklace using one of the million ribbon and cord necklaces I picked up last month and a pendant featuring a creepy bird that seems to have seen better days.

Trinket #209 - Tiny Book Pendant

Yes, another daytime trinket! I had to get this knocked out earlier than usual because tonight I will be escorting my daughter to see her favorite band in the entire world live on stage. If you've ever been around an excited 10-year old, you can imagine how difficult it has been to get anything done, especially something that might require a bit of concentration. Somehow, I managed to put together this little book (3/4-in x 1/2-in) with real pages and  a cover, too! All eight working pages are glued in, and the whole thing is secured by a wire and bead for hanging.
