Description Yay!!! finally got around to taking a pic. This is my prototype, keyfly The wings are soldered to a genuine small barrel key. I then cut up a collage and glued it into the wings with diamond glaze. I covered all the paper to give it a glass-like covering and wired it to a necklace.

This one was an experiment and learning experience, the back is ugly. But I have three in progress, and they are turning out much better, now that I know what I'm doing . . .

cool Idea it looks very nice, I like the hand made not perfectly machined feel of it, it has a nice sort of naturalness to it.

Absolutely stunning. Are there any dragonfly keyflys planned?

Also, I suggest that you put a link to your etsy shop in the comments so I can flood my favorites!

well, this one isn't in my etsy shop. It's my prototype and I'm fixing some things on the ones I'm hoping to sell. They'll be here and in my etsy shop soon

I'd love to do a dragonfly one, but I need more keys first.

Well you should still put a link up.

"This one isn't for sale, but you can find all my other available items in my Etsy shop: *link*"

Like that. Also, how much would they be, I'd be interested in buying a dragonfly one.
