DIY Ribbon and Resin Necklace from Tatertots & Jello

Diposting oleh fawaid on Kamis, 23 Februari 2012

Hi Brassy Apple readers!!

I'm Jen from Tatertots & Jello. I am such a fan of Meg's and all of her amazing ideas. And I am SO exited to be here!!

Today I am sharing a little Spring Necklace idea. Can I tell you how excited I am for SPRING???? I can't wait. In the meantime -- here's a little project that is helping me fight away the winter blues. And it uses Dimensional Magic -- which is SUCH a fun medium.

Ribbon and Resin Necklaces

Here's what you need:

Scrapbook Paper or Stickers

Metal, Wood or Chipboard -- for the back of the pendants

Mod Podge

Dimensional Magic

Necklace Bails

Ribbon or Chain

Here's What You Do:


  1. Take a sticker or a piece of scrapbook paper and stick it or Mod Podge it onto your backing.
  2. Cut out the shape in your metal, wood or chipboard backing.
  3. Add a layer of Mod Podge to the top of the paper or sticker.
  4. Once dry, outline the paper with Dimensional Magic, and fill it in.
  5. Sand off the edges.
  6. Let that dry.
  7. A tip -- if you have bubbles, pop them with a lighter.
  8. Add a Metal Necklace Bail to the back. Adhere it with something like E6000 or 9001.
  9. Add some tags and cut the holes with a Cropodile.
  10. Or add some buttons. {these are from the Dear Lizzy line from American Crafts.
  11. Add a length of ribbon or chain and tie in a bow at the side.

And I bought a little $1 scrapbooking kit from Target and made a little necklace out of it.

This would be a fun idea if you wanted to make a necklace with a special picture, or even small pictures of your kids' faces.

Thanks for letting me share it with you!!

xoxo

(For those that are new to my blog, each Friday I share a photo(s) I have taken. I enjoy taking pictures for fun and capturing what I see through the lens when inspired to do so. The photos can be business or family related, from my personal life or just from the everyday. Enjoy My Photo Friday)

OH lucky am I! I had a girls lunch out with some local "talent and friends" :) 
After tweeting about it late this summer we finally got schedules to meet up.

Me and Kari - she is just darling! we drove together and hit it off right away!

SO - we'd love to lunch again and meet up with other local blogger/crafters/tweeters :) I'm always up for some girl time!
