Faux Opal Wire Wrapped Pendant

This particular pendant is one Im especially proud of. I made the cabochon with polymer clay and a final coating of resin. I used translucent(which btw, I ADORE!), pink and bits of green polymer clay. I added opalescent mylar flakes to create the "opal effect". After the baking and ice water bath process, I sanded and buffed it but still couldn't get the shine I wanted so I added a coat of clear resin which I think worked wonderfully! :) Finally, I wrapped the cab in silver wire to make it into a wearable pendant.
