TAST 2012 Week 43 Buttonhole Wheel Cup

i have finished my Buttonhole Wheel Cup sampler in a hurry as we are setting out for a pilgrimage day after tomorrow early morning..will be back after a couple of weeks..so i will really miss next 2 tast stitches:( but surely catch up soon..

hope you will like my pendant where i used golden metallic thread and a mirror inside..pearls were used for chain and finally i decided to add 3 pearls at the tip of the pendant as well just to embellish the neckwear..

which one looks better? 1st or 2nd one?
