Boo!
domino necklace

designer: Melinda Frewin

Since I have a hard time finding the perfect Ephemera, I get mine from books and image CDs.
I love this vintage witch image so much that I HAD to put it on a necklace
and wear it all October. I've had great compliments already!

The colors are much, much better in person. It was really hard
to scan this dimensional piece.

Boo! flying witch domino pendant, collage art, mixed media

Glitter glue: purple
Decoupage glue: you can use ModPodge or Golden Gel Medium

Eyehooks: 2 small
Ribbon: black piquot
Painting supplies: brushes, palette, paper towels, water basin

Scissors

PREPARATION
Sand domino so paint will stick. Remove any excess dust. Drill holes for eyehooks - top and bottom. Paint domino. Adhere eyehooks in holes.

INSTRUCTIONS
1 Print image from clip art CD or use your own Halloween image, trim, and decoupage to domino's smooth back.

2 Print "Boo!". I created a table and filled the background with a color that looked like antique paper. You could also print on white paper and age with a tea stain, acrylic wash, or stamping ink. Trim and decoupage to image.

3 Apply glitter glue above image. Let dry.

4 Apply glue for beads below image and adhere beads. I put the glue on the domino first and sprinkled the beads over the glue. I let it dry and removed the excess beads later.

5 Attach charm to bottom eyehook with jump ring and needlenose pliers.

6 Cut ribbon to fit over your head. Thread through top eyehook and tie.

7 Wear with pride and be prepared to get comments!
