Ying Ying the little owl


Made this wire wrapped pendant a little while ago using a charoit cabochon, Swarovski crystal beads and stone, and steling silver wire and beads. In Chinese, owls are called "Mao Tao Ying", and as I didn't like "Mao Mao" or "Tao Tao", I decided to call him "Ying Ying". Because of the shape of the cab, he became a rather chubby little owl.

  2. Thanks Bev. Must admit I do find him rather cute. Owl is one of my favourite animals (frog is another).

  4. Thankyou very much for your comments, Jodie. Yes I love owls and purple. I also love frogs. (Mmm, must make a wire-wrapped frog one of these days!)
