Learn to make this 3D vase, which is constructed using a combination of multiple structure wires, weaving and beads. This versatile technique can be easily adapted to make any round or circular, hollow, 3D form. This vase measures 1 ¼” from top to bottom and 1 ¼” loop to loop.

The vase can simply be hung on a chain (threaded through the handles) for an elegant pendant, or you could attach a chain tassel through the point at the bottom to add movement. Alternatively you could attach beads, drops, briolettes and charms to give a gypsy twist to your necklace. Just unleash your imagination.
