Sherlock (BBC) Text Pendants.

[ldhenson]

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.

Aw those are gorgeous, well done! :D

I love that this fandom gets creative with labware. :) Great idea!

Those are really cool.

(I must go remind myself that I have a pill box already and do not need a pill test tube for my painkillers.)

these are awesome - you should sell them - they're so clever.

[defaultlyric.livejournal.com]

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?

I really, really love these. As always, you did a great job ! *_*

I love them *__*
Really great!!! Your stuff is gorgeous!

If you decide to actually sell these - please let me know. I'm fairly certain my mum would love one as a prezzie.
Yes, I suck everyone I know into my fandoms, including my mum.

These are adorable. As always!

Awesome as always. What a brilliant idea!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you, labware is awesome. And versatile.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

(test tube + pill) = (chemistry + medicine) = (Sherlock + John) ♥

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

If people are interested, I can make them available, though I have limited supplies. Just PM me.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Glad you like them!

Will send you a PM later tonight.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks!

Love the icon.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Heh, what else are children for?

I can make more if people are interested. I'll PM you later tonight.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thanks very much!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I have to say it was pretty cool getting to use a drill on something :-)

[quiet000001.livejournal.com]

Hahahah. I hadn't thought of it that way, but yes!

My pill test tube would be slashtastic.

Alas, I don't think there's an appropriate quote anyway for a bottle to contain things what do not do anything interesting to my brain except stop me being in too much pain to think. (I hate arthritis.)

[calidreamin08.livejournal.com]

cool!

[whyelis.livejournal.com]

Do you still take commissions on the 09 movie ones? Both versions are gorgeous, but the older ones really caught my fancy. :) Would be great if you'd PM me to let me know?

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Yes, I'm still taking commissions on those. I'll PM you.

[fantasy-bubbles.livejournal.com]

I seriously want to buy one of these!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

I'll PM you :-)

[sozuki17.livejournal.com]

If I can afford it I'm interested in some of these (and the older ones) as well!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Cool, I'll PM you.

[verilyvexed.livejournal.com]

Those are brilliant - gorgeous and such a great idea! Going to stalk your journal now. 8D

If you start up commissions on the older variety (digging the aged-paper look), I'd be very interested in at least one. If I could afford it, I'd have you come do my walls like that, omg. GORGEOUS.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I never get tired of working with vintage (or at least faux-vintage) ephemera.

I'm still offering the older style. I'll PM you.
