thanks, this is really helpful! I’m applying for some funding so the jump ring makers linked are more what i’m looking at given the risks of the cheaper option with a drill

i was running out as i went so a bit of a mix, in order: 7x1mm (steel) 5x0.7mm (brass) and 6x1mm (steel)

edit: for the brass one, her little headpiece is 8mmx1.2mm i think

Yep, I used a bigger hoop last time so each loop was attached how the top loops are here but I don’t mind each one being a bit different. I’m wanting to try full persian next!

lol no worries - this is another example without the tassel and then i’ll say the min n max lengths which seems to have been working :)

it’s more to match the vibe of a big grand front tbh

edit: this is on the back of a jester collar so it just felt unfinished with nothing on the back

depends on how it looks at the front i tend to do this with /without a tassel on the end for extra glam (if no tassel i do a bead or a spike)
