DIY~Make Gorgeous & Simple Mixed Media Domino Pendant Necklaces!
Make these fun and inexpensive mixed media pendant necklaces with acrylic , scrapbook paper, Triple Thick, glitter and a variety of charms, buttons and bling from your stash! The results are so pretty and I love the fact that I can mix the metals without having to "match" silver with silver, gold with gold, etc. ~ It makes it fun not having to worry about that when putting these together. Please see my full tutorial by clicking on my following YouTube link:
