which led to this necklace!i wanted to do an Irish theme, but the inspiration never came. :(
so this is what you get instead.
first, i hammered a spoon into a flat shape, and snapped off the part of the handle i didn't need.
next i used gel medium to glue down some vintage advertisement paper.
i wanted my frog to remain green, but to blend in, so i gave him a light coating of antique gold.
hot glue held it all together, and i added a "G" embellishment for green and hung it on a chain. ta da! cute wearable frog. ^_^

I love your burnished green frog and the setting you have chosen for him is fantastic. Exquisite and unique artwork. Thanks so much for joining in the challenge this week.
