It took me a bit to think up of how I was going to do this. I finally came up with a plan. I had purchased these metal components from Rings & Things (more plans for them to come too). I punched 2 holes in the center of the solid ones so that I could thread the headpin down and then back up to wrap the rest of it around the base of the flower.
Then I punched a hole on each end and embellished each one with a rivet to connect all 5 of the scallops together. Simple chain is all that is needed to finish this collar up!

BEAUTIFUL!!! I think all of the pieces you've done recently with the flowers have been fabulous! This is no exception! Glad you decided to play along, I really like this necklace and it showcases the flowers in the most perfect way!
Wow - you necklace is amazing!! I love this!
Amazing! It's like having a little flower garden all year long!
Just gorgeous!
It is awesome to see a piece made with several of the enameled flowers! I love the colors, and it is a great statement piece. I used the same technique for attaching one flower headpin to my ring blank which had 2 holes. Great job-I love it!!
I love every piece you have made with thse flowers. Bravo!
How lovely, Miss Heather! I love the garland style. Very clever way to make this come together.
Enjoy the day!

Oh my gosh! I love it! I admire your ability to work with metal... I have a bit of an issue with metal myself, so I stick to wire! I love the colors and what a gorgeous way to showcase each flower!
I missed you earlier, but I will update my blog to include your link! :-) Kris
That's a really beautiful solution you came up with for using the enamel flowers. Love this necklace. Makes me feel like spring on this very grey day.
I'm drooling! You really succeeded in making a statement piece. The colors in your flowers are just amazing! I love the simple background you used to mount each. WOW!
You did an awesome job! I love the necklace. Lovely colors!
