Support What You're All About!

Support What You're All About!

Do you ever feel like people don't really know you? Or that you don't really proclaim what excites you?

I get this a lot being a mom.

Seriously, sweatpants and spit-up aren't what excites you? Well, it doesn't really excite me either.

So I'm being proactive and making my own wearable art (though I don't know how great this piece will look with sweat pants).

What's great about this style of pendant is that you can make a few more and they are adaptable to your interest, moods, or outfits.

This pendant is a combination of several techniques:

1. Paper Mache
2. Watercolor
3. Decoupage
4. Wire wrapping
5. Patience (trust me this one is the hardest!)

Eco Friendliness!

There are two reasons this pendant is Eco-Friendly, well three actually:

1. Reused cardboard is used for the base.

2. The paper-mache pieces were made of old newspapers and used copy paper.

3. I made this necklace a couple of years ago, so I'm re purposing it in a way!

So Craft On Everyone :)
