Bitty Book Necklace

Image
By
Hi everyone , Eunice here from The Little Things !!! Going to share a little project for you for making some sweet bitty book necklaces !! I used several images from AP , you can choose any of the many many designs that are offered , I used a butterfly and clock face ! I cut out the image I want , then seal with diamond glaze or any clear sealer to make it more durable. If you want to have a message or text of any kind do the same with them , set aside and let dry ! I used grunge paper for the cover and added texture with a cuddlebug folder , when done you can use a distress tool on the edges to give a worn look ! I cut out however many pages for the book and also distressed them  ( I also used vintage images from AP for the inside pages ) ! Using a brad setter , add brads to the top so you can attach your chain .
I hope everyone is having a great start to your summer , don't forget to take time to be creative !!
Eunice

    Eunice, you are the BEST! The aged and well worn appearance makes it look like a family heirloom!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
