Ladies, one of my daughters wants a pendant made out of one of the Lenox ornaments that were a TSV. Can any of you tell me how to do this? I realize it will be a large pendant but it is strictly for fun for her and I would surely like to surprise her with one. I just don't know what kind of findings to use.

I make some jewelry.

Does the ornament have a hole that would accept a jump ring (those little circles that attach pieces to other pieces). If so, you can get jump rings in several difference sizes. You can then attach a bale (or is it bail?) - the big piece that you slip on the chain. Can anyone post a photo so we can see what it looks like?

Each of the 8 ornaments have the same o-ring at the top, in case one of these is not the specific one PERPETUALQ's daughter will be wearing. hth!

There are many open ring bales or enhancers that only require a pair of needle nosed plyers to install.

Hinged and no plyers.

Just tie a longer ribbon on it and tie it. You could use cord or velvet.

If you do buy one don't open the ring from a O to a C shape to install the pendant. Twist the pendant to the right while holding the O and twisting to the left. Once installed reverse the action and the O will be closed.

Thank you so much. Just what I needed. I ordered the hinged enhancer esmeraldagooch suggested but also like the ribbon/cord idea. Will try both. Again, thank you.

You can buy pliars and jewelry-making tools very inexpensively at Walmart in the craft department.
