....Slanted Heart Pencil Pendant for $38 by jenmaestre

This is one of the most beautiful, unique, and fun pieces that we've seen in a long time. Take a close look at the picture....



Yes, it is actually made with laminated pencils!!!! How aaaaamazing.

The pendant has a protective and very shiny coat of epoxy and such a pretty mixture of colors. Cherry reds, pinks, and even a hint of fuschia. We're thinking that this would make the PERFECT Valentine's Day gift - for mom, sis, auntie, or girlfriend.
