Granny Nancy says:Jane, I’d been thinking the other day how I’m looking forward to what ya’ll come up with since Valentines Day is not that far off. I love what you’ve made. As always you came up with something very unique and eyecatching. Love it!

Crystal Canary says:This is great! Love the focal and it’s message. I especially like the creative way you added the coil to hang the heart drop. Great way to set off the sequin spacers by framiing them with the white Czech daisy rondelles. Every element you chose for this really adds to an overall 70′s vibe of embracing love. Great work Jane!

Sari U says:This is beautiful and meaningful…I love the way you have put it all together. The focal pendant is fabulous…can you tell me where I could find one?

sweetjane says:Sari U…..I’m pretty sure it was a one of a kind thing…but you could request a custom order from DivineSparksStudio…on Etsy. The focal is done in Sgraffito… scratching on enamel.
