My customer wanted me to duplicate a paper airplane out of sterling silver… So I had to anneal the metal many time to soften it as I folded it into a paper airplane. i added the sterling silver chain, YOU can order this necklace just let me know how long you want the chain. Airplane is once inch long…

For Pendant ProjectLet me just start by saying, I didn't know if this was even possible to do. I threw out the idea on this site and was contacted by Maria saying it was a project she would take on. I cannot be more pleased with the results.
She contacted me with in thirty minutes of my post to get additional details. Once we talked about the finer points, she made an proposal and let me mull it over for a day. Once I accepted, she started right away, finishing and getting it to me in less time than she proposed.
The workmanship is amazing, the details stand out brilliantly in my pendant. This high quality piece is a wonderful way for me to commemorate the release of my first full length novel.
A million thanks to Maria Varnalis for taking on this project and bringing it to life for me! I would definitely recommend her for your projects and I will be happy to use her again in the future.
