2 Fun New Jewelry Projects, Glue, and You

March 31, 2009 by Tammy | 5 Comments

I was challenged by Rings & Things to come up with projects using some of its components such as a bracelet blank and brass frame. Though there are other ways to adhere to these items such as epoxy and solder, I went for good old glue. Above is my Fishy Sticky Brass Bracelet. I found the stickers in the scrapbooking section of Michael’s.

For the pendant, I decided to go a little high-brow with a cool quote from Andre Breton: “Words make love with one another.” The result is my Andre Breton Brass and Paper Choker project.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

    Hopefully, lots of folks will see them that way. The Andre Breton pendant has gotten a surprising amount of feedback considering how simple it was to make. Easy is usually best I guess.
