Chain-LInk Bezel Cabochon Ring

Last couple of days, my mind has been a bit messed-up with constant replaying of images of this ring:

The constant replaying like old recorder really GOT ME! I have to make do with the little time I have after work to make this ring.


Images are taken at 12am this morning... I try my best to show you different angles of my ring...

It is consistent both front and back and it sets the drilled stone perfectly! The best of all it took me just an hour to make this ring. Entirely made using the same weaving technique as my latest Tutorial "Chain-Link Bezel Cabochon".

If you are interested to custom made a ring similar to this, please email me at sales@jennypong.com

Haslina's braided bracelet

Haslina bought this tutorial a day after I have released this tutorial for sale. I received these pictures the very next day but I didn't see this until today as the mail has gone to SPAM BOX. Haslina has kindly allowed me to share pictures of her braided bracelet using Tourmaline round beads. =)

If your emails went unanswered, please do not hate me for that. Do email me again or forward to me by changing the subject matter or leave me an offline message on my ZOPIM chatbox.
