Update: Due to popular demand...I am now making this necklace for my etsy shop! Necklace listing found here!
Today I'm going to show you how to make this necklace:
Supplies:
-Chain
-Clasp
-Jump Rings
-Head Pins
-Cardboard
-Sheet Music
-Heart Punch
-Modge Pog
-Wire cutters
-Needle nose pliers
-Round nose pliers
Steps:
Step 1: Punch out two heart shapes out of sheet music (I used some left over from this project in which I had tea-stained the sheet music to make it look older!) and one out of cardboard.
Step 2: Using Modge Pog, paste the sheet music shapes onto the cardboard
Step 3: Using a hole punch (I used a really tiny metal hole puncher) punch a hole in the top middle of the heart.
Step 4: Open up a jump ring and put it into the hole.
Step 6: Coat the both sides of the sheet music with a couple more layers of Modge Pog. Don't forget to get the sides!
Step 7: Gather up a couple different beads. Make them into charms by putting them onto a head pin, bending the wire to a 90 degree angle with needle nose pliers, trimming off the excess with wire cutters, and then forming a circle with the round nose pliers. Attach all of these charm onto another jump ring and squeeze the circle shut with your needle nose pliers.
Step 8: Attach the jump ring with all the charms to the jump ring on the heart charm with another jump ring (jump rings are your best friends in jewelry making!!). Add a chain and clasp, and you are good to go!
Enjoy your new necklace!!

ReplyDeleteLovely! Such a great job using the beads and the sheet music -- two of my favorite things!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great project! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! I've played the piano since age 3, so this is super-appealing to me! I'm a bit intimidated by the beading part...I do lots of crafts, but jewelry making isn't really one of them. This is so pretty though that it's worth a try! Thanks so much for sharing your idea...I saw you at Sew Crafty Saturday.

Adorable! I made a heart necklace, HERE, but it was clunky with the wooden hearts. Great idea to use cardboard, paper, and punch. Found you at Christina's Adventures =)

Darling, Rebecca! What a perfect necklace for a music lover. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute necklace! I love that sheet music heart idea. :)
ReplyDeleteI found you through A Creative Princess and I am so eXcited to do this project. My daughter has her final violin concert this year and her best friend is choosing not to continue on next year. I think I will make these for them, except for the difference being I will make a violin shape and put a date on the back. Oh, I am so excited for this GENIUS idea, what a great way to commemorate a memory for my 10 year old.
ReplyDeleteas I said before I love this! I featured you! :)
