Here is another arts and crafts project that I failed to properly photograph. My dinosaur friend was kind enough to model these new wares for me and I must say, the color really shows off her skin tone. I made two necklaces and a pair of earrings as you can see by scrolling down. These were a lot of gratification with very little work. I got the idea from a Pinterest post on my "Things I Would Do if I Had the Time" board. I made it my own by using different colors in my necklaces, I also arranged them differently. All you need for this is washers (got them at Home Depot), 10mm jump rings, chain, a lobster clasp and nail polish. First, I laid out my design on a piece of paper and painted the washers with the nail polish colors of my choice. As you can see, I used yellow, orange and gray (which looks a little brown in the pictures). Once these dried I linked them together with jump rings based on my original design. I attached a chain and a lobster clasp and VOILA!! A pretty cool necklace in about 2 hours total. I was impressed by how well the nail polish covered the washers and remained shiny.
For this necklace I used spray paint. The colors were strong but I did not like it as much because it chipped off much more than the polish. It had a matte finish which was kinda nice.
And the earrings...
Hope you enjoy these arts and crafts...I think they are Dynomite (no dinosarus were harmed in the making of these necklaces)!
