Product Description:This fiber optic acrylic heart charm measures approximately 3/4 inch wide and has the distinctive shifting band of light often described as a cat eye effect. The softly rounded, dimensional heart catches and reflects light differently as it moves, giving it much more visual depth than an ordinary solid-color acrylic heart. Each heart comes with a pinch bail already attached, making it ready to hang from a necklace, bracelet or other project. Because of the fiber optic effect and natural variations in appearance, no two hearts are exactly alike.
Use this light-catching heart as a small pendant, bracelet dangle, keychain charm, zipper pull or decorative accent. The attached pinch bail makes it especially easy to add to chain, cord, ribbon or other necklace materials. Pair it with coordinating beads for a monochromatic design or contrast it with other colors to create playful heart jewelry, friendship gifts, Valentine's Day projects and personalized accessories.
General Information:More Ways to Use Heart Charms and Pendants
A heart doesn't have to be reserved for Valentine's Day. Heart jewelry can represent a spouse or partner, children and grandchildren, sisters, close friends or anyone who holds a special place in your life. A heart in someone's favorite color can turn a simple necklace or bracelet into a more personal gift.
Look beyond the traditional heart, too. Fiber optic hearts have shifting cat eye patterns that make each one a little different, floral hearts combine flowers with the symbolism of a heart, and Southwestern and abstract designs offer something for people who prefer less traditional jewelry. Double and joined hearts can be especially meaningful for couples, friends and family.
Making a Heart Pendant Your Own
Many heart pendants can be worn simply by adding them to a chain or cord, but they can also become the starting point for a larger design. Add coordinating beads above the heart, combine it with smaller charms and dangles, or choose findings in silver, gold, copper or other finishes to change the overall look. Hearts with bails are easy to move between chains and cords, while charms can be connected with jump rings or other jewelry findings.
Heart charms are useful beyond necklaces and bracelets, too. Add them to keychains, zipper pulls, purses, backpacks, ornaments and handmade gifts. A small change in how a heart is used can turn the same jewelry finding into something completely different.
