Dreamcatcher Tree of Life

Description

So I've been meaning to post up a picture of this for a while, but couldn't because my camera decided to go AWOL. But after teaching myself how to make Tree of Life pendants, I decided to up the game a bit and turn it into a dreamcatcher hybrid. The center hoop is 2 inches in diameter, and the outer is 4 inches. The "leaves" of the tree are turquoise, amethyst, garnet, leopard jasper, and serpentine (aka new jade). The ones around the outer ring, starting at the top and working clockwise, are labradorite, rose quartz, moonstone, cherry quartz, tiger eye, citrine, lapis lazuli, and blue quartz. The beaded feathers are modeled after the tail feathers of, from left to right, an osprey (aka sea/river hawk), an eagle, and a burrowing owl. Each feather took 6 to 8 hours from pattern concept to completion, and the wire-work itself took around 4 hours. That means the entire thing took about 24 hours to make.

Why do I insist on making absolutely insane complex projects?
