Ingredients:
- 7 scrabble tiles
- 7 various pictures/images of one theme (I used vintage portraits of women in this project)
- Scrabble tile template
- 22 open jump rings
- Lobster clasp
- Glossy Accents (or similar)
- Pearl Ex Pigmants
- Tacky Glue (or similar)
- Drill and small bit
- Needlenose pliers
- Paintbrush
- Pallet (or other non-porous dish)
- Drill two holes in each of the scrabble tiles according to the directions in the tutorial.
- Select your images and cut them out using the template.
- Glue them onto the tiles, allowing them to dry.
- Coat the images with a thin layer of lightly watered glue, or other sealant.
- Apply pearl ex pigments for extra detail, if you wish. For this project, I left the images as they were.
- You may also apply pearl ex pigments or acrylic paint to the sides and back. Again, I left the tiles as they were.
- Coat each side with Glossy Accents (or similar) Make sure you allow the side to completely dry before turning or touching - - I learned the hard way. :-/
- Once the tiles are completely dry, put a jump ring in each hole. This may be a bit tricky, depending on how close you were able to drill the holes to the edge. Link each tile with a jump ring. Add the lobster clasp and an extra jump ring on the end to complete the clasp.
- Voila!
