Watch it: NBC-9 Making Recycled Jewelry


Here is a little video from NBC-9 Colorado where we are making recycled jewelry. The host of the show was so sweet and an awesome Mod Podger! She loved her necklace so much that she wore it for the rest of the broadcast.

Poker Chip Pendant

Materials:
Poker Chip
Scrapbook paper
Circle punch or scissors
Mod Podge
Foam paintbrush
Dimensional Magic
Bail
E6000 Glue
Necklace

Steps:

Begin with a clean poker chip. Use a circle punch to punch a piece of scrapbook paper or trace around the poker chip onto a piece of scrapbook paper and cut out the circle.

Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the poker chip and place the paper on the chip. Top coat with a layer of mod Podge. Smooth out any air bubbles with your finger. Allow to dry.

Add a layer of Dimensional Magic to the top of the chip. Pop any air bubble with a sewing pin. Allow to dry 24 hours.

Glue a bail to the back of the chip with E6000 glue and string onto your favorite necklace or bead a new necklace.
