There is a crafting passion of mine that I have never posted about here - jewelry making. Mainly because I haven’t done it in a while. I used to love making bracelets, earrings, and necklaces. Then today, I got a package in the mail that had my jewelry brain hopping!
I got a package of really cool acrylic stuff from D. Reeves, which included these 1 inch charms. As soon as I saw them, I knew I would be crafting tonight!
Here is how I took my scrapbooking stuff and my jewelry stuff and used it all together!
I cropped and printed the photos in one inch squares, then punched them with the squeeze punch.
I covered the backs of the photos with some fun Kimberly Poloson paper…
I used spray adhesive to adhere the photos to the paper and then the photos to the charms.
I then grabbed my punch to put the holes into the charms.
I added rub-ons to the backs of the paper on the charms for a little more color.
The final product… a fun little scrapper’s bracelet!
