Saint Salvage

I pinned this very interesting looking wire wrapped sea glass caged pendant on Pinterest a little while ago, but I was asked recently how "I made it". I didn't make it, and never said I did. But, I'm curious, and I do want to make it. Since I'm living out of a hotel right now, with a minimal amount of supplies, I couldn't whip one up.... I decided to do a little research.  I found this  tutorial for a wire wrapped Prong Setting , and I generated this two part sketch on how to do the pendant above. I'll just have to tackle it when I get back home to my supplies. Yes.... I drew this, and then scanned it.

I have been trolling through the different Michaels store, because they've been having lots of clearance specials. I found a big box of beach glass:       I also found these five copper tear drop shaped copper cages that were wrapped with copper wire:  I decided to fill the wire-wrapped drops with the beach glass. I got my trusty pliers, and moved the wire aside to insert the tiny pieces of the glass.   Here's a close up in outdoor light. The colors look really cool in the light.     Another close-up:   I attached the chain of the sea glass cages to a broken necklace with the black beads and the brass elongated pumpkin beads.   From the front. What do you think?
