Crescent Moon
About this design:
I had these beautiful stones and tried several different designs but nothing popped for me. Then...an idea came to me. Since I love sun/moon designs, I took a piece of copper and cut a football shape and formed it into a moon.
Components:
Copper, copper wire,swarovski crystals,Read the comments (or add your own)

You won’t believe this, but I’ve been sketching something similar and couldn’t quite picture how to cut the shape…a football! This really rocks. So imitation is the sincerest form of flattery…guess I’ll work mine up & post it soon.
