Pendants made out of old medals


 

Hey friends its Sapna, I wanted to share the idea  of using old medals(that won't be missed) to make  chunky pendants ...........Here's how its done!!

  • Medals
  • Crushed glass(from glass old bottles )
  • Nail Paint or Pearl Paint.
  • Adhesive



Directions:

  • Crush the glass  by keeping pieces between towels so that no glass shreds may accidentally harm you.If you can get crushed or broken glass shreds   from somewhere  that will be better
  • Stick the glass pieces to the medal using adhesive .Wear gloves while doing so , protect yourselves at all times.
  • After everything dries up and becomes hard , use nail paint or pearl paint to  color the pendants.

Put it in a chain and you are good to go !!!! do try it :)

Handmade Owl Pendant

 Hey frenzz its Sapnaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ;)
I made an owl pendant last week which I wanted to share in here.
I had a buckle kind of a piece left from my mom's old purse .
That acted as a base for my owl.
I now had to make eyes and ears  so,,,,,,,
  •  I used two stones to make ears and tied them to the metal base with wire.
  • I stuck the silver washers onto the stones with an adhesive, to make rims around the eyes of the owl .
  • Then I stuck two blue beads on the washers to make eyeballs,
  • I then painted black spot on the eye balls to complete the eyes using  black nail paint.

 My owl is ready to wear ,and its sooooooooooooo cute , see fr ur self , luv it, try it  make one for your own .!!!!!! xoxo;)

DIY ..Flower Pendant out of disposable plastic spoons

                    


  The material you require are shown  above



You can use any colour spoon you want or you can also spray paint them afterwards.
- cut off the handles using scissors
- when you have 17 (10 for outer petals, 5 for petals around the 2 in the middle)

 Light the candle
- Take your needle nose pliers to hold the spoon.
- Try not to keep the spoon too close to the flame as it will cause blackening of the plastic.
- Melt the bowl of the spoon and heat the underside.
- let it cool down a bit but while it's still warm and bendable shape the petal by pulling the tip and bending it backwards with your fingertips.

- You could speed the cooling down up by blowing.
Repeat- this step for all 17 petal


- Beginning with the 10 outer petals take two spoons and melt what's left of the handles. Fuse placing them next to each other and smooth out the melt until the handles stick together. You could use the needle nose pliers to do this since the melted plastic is incredibly hot!
- Repeat this 4 times so that you have 5 sets of 2 petals.
- Now melt the handles of 2 sets and stick them together.
- Repeat this step until you have the 3 pieces of the rose.

This will take a while to figure out which is the right way to assemble all pieces
- Glue the pieces together with leftover parts of plastic  or by melting the bottom side of the petals.
- Insert the 5 petals into the 10 petals and the 2 middle petals into the 5.
See picture.
Now that your rose is finished melt the bottom of the rose and push it flat (I used a saucer to push it flat). Once it is flat enough melt the plastic again and push a safety pin into it and secure by laying small piece of melted plastic over the safety pin.

Optional:
Pendant - hang it onto a long jewellery chain.Or make a broach
