Early in the spring, I like to pick up small twigs so that I can copper electro form them and turn them into an artsy form of nature. Copper electroforming is the fascinating process with which you can grow metal over almost any object using chemicals and electricity. This twig is a hickory twig. After I electro form them, I give them an oxidized patina and a clear coat of jewelry lacquer to protect the patina.

I have taken copper wire and wired the twig so that it could be attached to an double strand of black 1.5mm leather cord which has been tied at one end with a snake knot to create loops and then accented with a copper bead. I have added a handmade pottery heart in a pale blue and yellow color with a copper heart charm. I then added a quartz nugget with a glass flower bead, along with a strand of small copper leaf chain to which I added a matte amethyst and dumortierite bead. I then added matte gold and black ammonite beads.
The twig is 3 3/8 inches long and the pendant drop is 1 1/2 to 2 inches for the beads and potter heart.
