I've always been fascinated by all things miniature. A big love of mine is making ornamental boxes.

This walnut perfume bottle holder is a fun project to tackle, yet at the same time expands technical skills.
It's a good learning basic for hinge making, working with tubing to make bottles and making thread for bottle caps. Etching is done on the perfume bottles.
All these skills can be transposed into other jewelry making applications.

With this project you can also add your own flair. For instance making the decorative gemstone section a removable pendant. The possibilities are endless and the fun factor high.
