When I first came across this idea at Simply Modern Mom, I knew I just had to give this project a try. Again, SO MANY OPTIONS!!!
I followed Simply Modern Mom’s tutorial pretty much word for word, down to using wax paper on my work surface. Worked perfectly!
First, I cleaned up my glass tiles.
Then I picked out several different papers that I deemed “wearable”.
I couldn’t find “Diamond Glaze” but this “Paper Glaze” worked out fine.
Attached the paper to the tiles using the Paper Glaze:
After drying, I sealed the backs of the pendants with another layer of Paper Glaze.
I let that dry overnight before attaching my bails with E-6000.
I let the finished pendants sit overnight before moving them.
Here are a few examples of my finished necklaces:
All wrapped up and ready for gifting!
***UPDATE***: (11/26/11) I’ve had a lot a e-mails recently regarding where to purchase glass tiles, bails and ball chain necklaces for making this craft. I bought all of the items through Sun & Moon Craft Kits. They also sell the Diamond Glaze. This store used to be through Etsy, but not anymore. I've changed the link to their new site. The seller is wonderful, the product was perfect and shipping was fast. Hope that helps you out!
