Meet the Design Board!

Sometimes I get stuck when I am trying to design a new piece of jewelry and I need a little help figuring out the layout of the piece.

I have some fun leaf charms that I have been wanting to use in a necklace design for a while now and I decided that I wanted to use them as links instead of dangles. I punched a hole into the leaf ends and then I started laying them out in different ways on my design board until I found the pattern that made me the most happy.

My next post will be about what design I picked and how I finished the piece.


Design 1 - Simple, symmetric

Design 2 - Symmetric with dangle

Design 3- Simple assymetric

Design 4 - Assymetric with single dangle

Design 5 - Assymetric with double dangle
Design 6 - Not so simple assymetric.
