Is it a sin to mix copper and gold?
Im getting a copper pendant, but dont know if I can get copper coloured fastenings.
Is it ok to use gold as the copper will be at the front and the gold fastening at the bag, out of site?
I will probably put inbetweeny coloured beads on the wire so may help with colour transition.

I don't make jewellery other than playing with beads with my daughter, so I'm certainly no expert.

However, from a buyers point of view, if I liked it, then it certainly wouldn't bother me if both colours were present as long as it was done tastefully and blended together nicely.

Personally I wouldn't mix if it can be avoided.
