Sherlock (BBC) Text Pendants.

When the 2009 Sherlock Holmes movie came out, I did a set of customizable text pendants. Now for Sherlock 2010 I wanted to do something similar, but give it a contemporary twist.

I've had this idea for weeks, but it was only last night that I found the right size drill, and...

Preview:






I love that Sherlock loves his chemistry, so I used real screw-top test tubes (the plastic variety). I drilled holes in the caps so that I could hang them.

It holds tiny things like tic-tacs quite nicely :-)





I distressed the labels a little--after all labs are hardly pristine!





I nestled a little glass bead in the cap for a spot of color.

Tubes and caps, not counting the hanging loop/clasp, are slightly over 4.5 cm long.

Do want! In fact, not only do I want some of these, I also want some of the other, older, movie-Sherlock text pendants. D:

Don't know if you're taking commissions on either/both, but if so, would you care to PM me about it?

Glad you like them!

Will send you a PM later tonight.
