I just started making pendants with small wood pieces and dominos. It is a lot of fun.

I just print of what I want for the picture(copyright free as well I purchased some just that size and printed them from the computer), I then trim them and coat them with a triple glaze I got from a supplier call stockade, I do several coats. Once dry I then add a bail or just bead through the holes if there is one. If you add a bail all you do is take a nail file and rough the back surface of the domino add a little crazy glue or something strong like that and attach the bail. Then use anything from ribbon to chain to hang from.

I like doing micro slides as well. You can create small pieces of art and put it between the glass pieces then solder it or you can get wonderful little frames that way you just slip the glass in the frame and close it, string it with something and you have a cute little pendant.

I will try and post some pics this weekend if I can of some of the ones I made.

Smiles n hugs
