In January I ordered blank pendants and I started thinking about the design.
It is funny how many different ideas little pendant can give you… One more time regular geometrical shapes won (I am not even surprised) but I was surprised how many trees, flowers ideas were in my head too…
So I made first design in red, great color… I checked the design torturing my friends, daughter with the pictures. The red squares idea passed all tests and I was happy people liked it (of course they could be nice because of our friendship but let me be an optimistic person… ) My daughter named it “Man Upside Down”.
My hands and head did not want to take a rest so the second pendant was in my mind. I started with little flowers and oval shaped pendant and right away the idea pop out. Traditional design with new touch, “Tree In Bloom”. I think there will be more grandma pendants in my collection… I just LOVE the feeling that I have connection with the past, with roots. I will work on that and we see where the past and present will lead me.
I showed the tree pendant to my daughter (a girl with artistic soul) and she was so happy to see it, so proud of me that I hope people will like it too. The little thing just makes people happy so this is the first good reason to like it
When pendants were ready I had to look for glue to stick tiles to metal… So good I first sent email to my friend Crystal, she had more experience and she did the research earlier. We both are beginners with pendants but I hope the glue is the one that we need.
SO THE GLUE is… Liquid Fusion Clear Urethane Glue and I bough it in Michaels. It does not smell, I could work inside without any problem with bad smell or head ache after all, it is really clear and it looks like great solution for that project.
After all the compliments the glue has to work for me.
A good picture will be the last part of the project. I need nice background to compliment the pendants and the work will be done.
