Here is a FuN...and SUPER easy necklace that i made for my kid's teachers this year.
First I printed out their teachers names on card stock. Then I put a piece of clear packing tape over the names {I'll explain in a minute :)}
Then I cut out the names...
Then I used these AWESOME {Fragments} from Tim Holtz... that i bought @ JoAnns! They were on sale...but if they are not...use your 40% off coupon. You get a TON of different sized pieces in one pack!

Check out this awesome video where Tim Holtz demonstrates how to use Fragments:

Then... I used a little Diamond Glaze {you could also use Glossy Accents} to glue the names onto the Fragment. The reason why I put clear packing tape over the names...is because I didn't want the printer ink to bleed when I added the glaze.
Then...I added more Diamond Glaze over the whole Fragment...then stuck it to a piece of scrap scrapbooking paper. Then let dry...then trim paper around Fragment. I also sanded the paper edges to give it a more finished look.
Then...I drilled a hole...
And added an o-ring...and whatever cording that was left over from these.
Oh I bet the teachers would love that! It's so original and they're super cute! Plus, not an apple in SIGHT! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic idea!

These are terrific! Thanks for a GREAT tutorial too. I always love your for-real ideas :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome!! In your tutorial did you glue the items on top or underneath the fragment?
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea. What did you do to the back of the charm to seal it?
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa & Julie! I glued the paper and the names to the bottom of the fragment...and the jewel to the top. And... as far as sealing it on the back...You prob. could go over the back of it with the same glaze if you wanted...but I didn't do anything and it turned out great. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try this one!! thanks : )
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!!! Thanks so much for posting. I've been wanting to make some necklaces like these for my little girl. Just posted about it on my Facebook page too!
ReplyDeleteVery clever and cute!
ReplyDeletelove this idea! gotta get me to the craft store soon :)
ReplyDeleteI love this project! Thanks for introducing me to fragments!
ReplyDeleteHi Stacie, I tried this necklace out for my future daughter-in-law and gave it to her at her bridal shower. Check it out at http://www.luckyloveshome.com/2010/06/necklace-for-sarah.html.
ReplyDeleteThanks for such a great idea and for such a great blog. Cheryl
I saw this for a teacher and knew this is what I wanted to do for my daughter's 3 teacher's. It is just so different and unique. Here is the link to my blog. Thank you!

I've been making a similar project, using photos to make picture pendants for myself. I love my Fragments, it's great to get so many in a package!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome and unusual idea! As a parent and teacher it's so different and fun! Thanks for the idea. I had never heard of the fragments until today!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I was wondering, could you use Mod Podge instead of the Diamond Glaze? I have tons left over from another project and it would be more convenient for me! :)
