Description:

Cherry Blossoms are very symbolic, often appearing in Japanese art. The blossom is a symbol of love and a portent of good fortune, but is most often associated with mortality, because of its intense beauty and quick death. In this lesson, you will learn to make cherry blossom earrings, a pendant, a pin, and a link. The materials listed are estimated for all of the projects. I hope you enjoy!
