Tarot Talisman Pendant

Create a pendant with a meaningful tarot card for yourself or as a gift. The front of the pendant shows silk peeking through lacework metal while the back has the tarot message. We’ve suspended it from a bundled leather-and-bead necklace with an adjustable closure. The pendant is attached to the bundled leather with grouped jump rings for a more substantial look and to provide sufficient support for the pendant.

To make pendant, you will need:
- 1 black patina Memory Frame, 1 ½ x 1 ½ inch
- 1 antique brass 16-Daisy plate, 1 ½ x 1 ½ inch
- 1 Memory Glass, 1 ½ x 1 ½ inch
- Sea Gala dupioni silk ribbon, cut into 1 ½ x 1 ½ inch square
- 1 tiny tarot card
- double-sided tape or glue stick

To make necklace:
- 72 inches orange rolled leather cord, 1.5 mm, cut into 12 6-inch sections
- 2 antique silver machine caps
- 3 antique brass jump rings, 14 mm
- 10 inches of Really Round Cable Chain, cut into two 5-inch sections
- 1 imitation rhodium spring ring clasp, 9 mm
- 2 inches antique silver Medium Knurled Oval Chain
- 120 (approx. 5g) Toho Treasures Matte Raku Teal/Green beads
- 527 glue
- 2 rubber bands

Tools:
- bone folder or paper creaser
- chain nose pliers

Step 1 Prepare Contents of Pendant

Place a small amount of glue or a piece of double-sided tape on the back of the tarot card. Position the card in the center of the ribbon square. Stack the daisy plate, the ribbon square and the glass slide so that the tarot card shows through the glass.

I really like this! I love the combination of elements, the color choices... the whole thing. I'm getting more interested in making jewelry, and this really does stand out to me as something I'd love to wear, as well as something I'd enjoy making! Great job!
