I first made a small one to wear on a crocheted choker I had made.  I then decided I wanted one to hang on my flag pole outside.  So I did it again adding just a few pieces to make it look right at the new size.
This is my very first time doing anything like this...as a project as well as an instructable.  I hope this helps someone that would like to try the same thing or inspire someone in some way.

Materials needed
Materials needed: aluminum flashing, scissors, hole punch, wire, wire cutters, sharpie, small pliers, etching tool, (I used my trusty Dremel) and something to wrap the wire around to make connecting links.

Most all of my supplies come from the local home improvement store.
