Even from an ordinary metal spoon you can make a beautiful and original pendant that will help emphasize your personality. And also such a craft is an excellent DIY gift to a friend or family member.
For this homemade product you will need a regular teaspoon (preferably made of stainless steel), as well as a picture that will be used as a template. In this case, this is the face of the wolf.
You can draw a drawing by hand, if you have the talent of an artist, or go the simpler way - download your favorite image from the Internet and print it on a printer.
The main stages of work
The first step is to transfer the picture or image to a teaspoon. To do this, you can use a permanent marker, which is highly resistant to mechanical abrasion. In other words, by accident with your hand you will not erase it. And this is just what you need.
Then we clamp the spoon in a vice, take a grinder with a cutting disc in our hands, and begin to cut the pendant along the contour of the picture. To do this, it is better to use a small angle grinder with a small disk, so that it is more convenient to work.
The eyes and nose of the wolf are drilled with a screwdriver or an electric drill. At the next stage of work, we proceed to processing the workpiece with a metal file. Then we cut off part of the handle and process the surface with sandpaper.
To give the pendant a more refined appearance, put it in a container with a solution of iron chloride. The detailed process of making a homemade pendant from a teaspoon can be seen in the video on the site.
