Miniatuare Book Necklaces

Hello all.... A slightly different direction for my miniature books. I have made these in the past but not this many. I personally think some of the chains are too heavy. So I am working on learning some new techniques for ribbon or leather necklaces next time. But they were fun to make. I am actually calling a couple of them "Steampunk" But in my head I always think of them as a wizards book..hehehe..
