My glass tiles arrived on Friday, so on Saturday afternoon I got stuck into making my pendants. I followed the tutorial from Tracy Yarbrough at Chickpea Studio and this video by Tam from willowing:
Here are some of the photos I've taken over the weekend of the pendants:
I found some photos of my art and printed them out onto card - you can see some of the glass tiles glued onto the prints.
The blue scrapbooking paper behind the board of pendants is the paper I used on the back of the tiles - this is one of my favourite papers and I should make a pendant out of that paper.
I cut out card and wrote on the back -'Glass Tile Pendant is NOT waterproof so please avoid getting wet. Thanks, Michelle. www.shellsinthebush.com. I have added my biz card to add a bit of colour and so the buyer has some info about me in case they would like to purchase a painting/print/pendant etc.
I even managed to find an old box to put them in for selling and have an nice notice board to display some on too - to sell at the community centre art show next weekend. Ten pendants were completed this weekend as I ran out of supplies, so will buy some more ribbon and card and get to making some more during the week.
More exciting news - my friend June whom I'm planning an exhibiton with next year - her painting at the arts festival sold - so very happy and excited for her - Congrats JuneBug!!! :D
Hope you are having a great weekend.
Love the pendants, Shell.
