A Remark You Made is Launching a New Line of Eco-friendly Needle Case Pendants Handmade from Reclaimed Tree Branches

For Christmas, my husband gave me the most beautiful inro-style pendant made from cow bone by a fabulous scrimshaw artist. An inro is a traditional Japanese case for holding small objects. This gave me a wonderful idea for a new product for 2011!

We are introducing a new line of eco-friendly needle case pendants handmade from reclaimed tree branches. Visit our shop for more selections: http://www.aRemarkYouMade.etsy.com.



This particular pendant is loaded with rustic charm and is handmade from a reclaimed tree branch from a down cherry tree. The pendant case can hold your sewing needles or small treasures like beads within it's hollow compartment. The pendant case has been drilled with all edges sanded smooth, and the bark is still intact adding to the rustic charm of this unique piece.

The top is also made from cherry wood and is opened by sliding the top up on the cord, exposing the inner compartment. The top stays put on the cord, so it will not get lost. This needle case pendant allows you to have a variety of needles at your fingertips any time you need them.
Perfect for your gatherings with your sewing groups.
