Create Unique Easter Jewelry

By Admin1 on March 16, 2013 in Holidays, Jewelry

When I lived in Ohio, I remember all too well covering up my beautiful Easter outfit with a heavy winter coat. The way the weather has been going lately, I’m thinking this Easter might be the same so I created a piece of unique Easter Jewelry to pin to your coat.

If the weather clears up (let’s hope it does) you can pin it onto an Easter basket or tote bag, or you can even hang it on the wall.

Supplies for unique Easter Jewelry:

3 inch x 2 inch lightweight, wood rectangle
Buttons (I used Buttons Galore and More buttons in Mint Cooler and Candy Apple
Beacon Adhesives Quick Grip
Small plastic toy lamb
Paper flower embellishments
Pin back

Instructions for unique Easter Jewelry:

1. Using the Quick Grip glue, attach buttons to the wood rectangle. I visually split the wood in half and filled the top in with the blue, Mint Cooler buttons and the bottom with the green, Candy Apple buttons to represent the sky and grass.

2. Glue the lamb onto the center of the piece, on top of the buttons.

3. To add some dimension, glue more buttons on top of your original button layer. Don’t completely fill it in this time. You want to have different levels of buttons in the background.

4. Glue the flower embellishments on to the piece.

5. Turn the piece over and glue the pin back on.

It’s actually a very easy project, that gives you really impressive results. I hope you’ll wear your pin proudly on Easter Sunday-no matter what the weather may bring!
