Desiree Report post Posted November 30, 2009 This is a necklace I made recently featuring a leather pendant of a House Finch which I carved and then painted. The pendant itself is about 2.5" wide and 2.25" tall at its broadest points. I love carving avian creatures in leather, and this is my second take on making a realistic songbird pendant. My first attempt was with essentially the same pattern but dyed and painted in a different way: Little Sparrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
