Look what I made!

Inspired by this necklace by the talented chain maille artist Janine, of Athena's Armory, I decided to try my hand at making some chain maille jewelry. Couldn't start with something simple - no - I went straight to the Byzantine Chain, which actually is pretty easy & fun! And didn't take me forever like I thought it would!

Byzantine Chain

Hook Closure

No, it's not perfect. There are tool marks and not all the links are perfectly round, and it's pretty loose, not all tight like Janine's, but I don't have all the perfect tools and it's my first try! I love it! ^-^

Now, I just need to get some of those fancy peg board thingies for making this stuff... Oh and more fancy wire!
