Walnut Locket.
If you are a proud member of this community you should know the joy when you remake the work of one of your favorite makers. Well, that happened to me when I saw the lovely work of Mr.Balleng's Locket, I repeat all the steps and result a nice product. But what if you decided to make your own version?
Cutting the Walnut.
In my Backyard there is an Old Black Walnut tree that every year gives us their seeds. I make cool thing wit the seeds but in the process some seeds just broke in halves. So I sort it out a kind of locket to wear and show off my beloved ones.First I take one half of seed and cut horizontally with a hacksaw. In the biggest half I cut a hole that is going to be the frame of the photo.
Leather Cord and Final Touches.
I grab some leather thread make a loop with an Office Clip and attached to the locket.Finnally I paint with clear Varnish.
