Spellbinders Creating A Gilded Life Contest~A Vintage Doily Lace Bib Necklace!! =)

Pin It



Hello!!
I'm back again with another Project for the Spellbinder's Creating A Gilded Life Contest!!
I wanted to make a Necklace using one of the Spellbinders A Gilded Life Small Rose Medallion Pendant Bezels!!

I had found this BEAUTIFUL Bib Necklace Plate at Hobby Lobby and I wanted to see if I could use it for the Base of my Necklace!! I used some Jump Rings and some Jewelry Wire to attach the Small Rose Medallion Pendant to the Front of the Bib Necklace Plate!! I then had to attach a Chain for my Necklace and I ended up using a really Pretty Chain Necklace I found also at Hobby Lobby!! I then decided it would be really BEAUIFUL to add some FUN Dangling Gems to the Chain!! So after looking through my Gems I decided on some Turquoise, Quarts in both Clear and Yellow and some Chalcedony Gems and attached Head Pins to create little Eye Charms for my Necklace!! I then adhered them to the Chain!! I REALLY LOVE the Color and the Playfulness, but yet it is still has a REALLY Classy Feel!! =) I wanted to use some Vintage Lace that was part of one of my M-I-L's Vintage Doilies!! She just passed away a week in a half ago and I wanted a piece of her that I could have with me and wear whenever I wanted to have her close to me!!  I cut one of the small flowers from the doily and placed it in the center of my Rose Medallion!! I wanted it to stay put so I added some Matte Multi-Medium to the inside of the Rose Medallion and then placed the Vintage Lace Flower on top and let it dry!! Then I added another slightly larger piece of Turquoise for the Center of my Vintage Lace Flower again using the Matte Mutli-Medium to hold it in place inside of the Rose Medallion Bezel!! Then I adhered the Clear Acrylic Top using some E6000 Glue!! To say I'm in LOVE with how this Necklace turned out is an understatement!!
I've Created a Video to share too!! =)

So what do you think!!?? Don't you LOVE how this turned out!!?? I hope you'll stop by the Spellbinders Blog and check out ALL of the other AMAMZING entries and if I'm one of the LUCKY Top 3 chosen I'll need your VOTES in order to Win a Trip to the Spellbound 3 Retreat with my AMAMZING Mother for some MUCH need Relaxation and Pampering!! =)

Spellbinders Creating A Gilded Life Contest second Post~ Vintage Charm Bracelet!! =)

Hello!!
I'm stopping in to share the BEAUTIFUL Vintage Charm Bracelet I made for the Spellbinders Creating A Gilded Life Contest!! I was having SO much FUN creating using the New Spellbinders A Gilded Life Products that I just kept right on creating!! =) I wanted to create something that I would wear and LOVE so I thought LONG and HARD about what I wanted to use for the Charm Bracelet!! I seem to HOARD Vintage Buttons and Charms, Pearls, Lace ect. so after looking through my stash of GOODNESS I decided to go through my Vintage Buttons and Pearls and make a Vintage Inspired Charm Bracelet!! I wanted to go with a Tan/Brown, Black, Cream and Pink color scheme as I had an OLD Necklace I have had from my Grandmothers stash for several years and I never knew what to do with it!!?? I have seen LOTS of Charm Bracelets that people create and then they can attach them to a Necklace and wear them that way too!! A Dual Purpose Piece of Jewelry!! =) WHOOP WHOOP!! So I KNEW that was going to be my goal for this Vintage Charm Bracelet!! I started by turning all of my Vintage Pieces into Charms!! I had to adhere some of the Pearls to Head Pins and then I also added some Jump Rings to the Vintage Buttons!! After having everything ready to attach to my Charm Bracelet Base I adhered the Spellbinders A Gilded Life Relics-B to my Bracelet Base first so I had them exactly where I wanted them!! Then I filled in around them adding ALL of my other Vintage Charms!! I LOVE the way it turned out!!


I've created a Video to share too!! =)

Here is the Vintage Charm Bracelet once I've added it to my Grandmothers Vintage Necklace!! I LOVE~LOVE~LOVE the way it looks!! So not only is it BEAUTIFUL, but its sentimental too!! I KNOW I'm going to be wearing this ALOT!! What do you think!!

I have a FUN Gift Box that I've made too!! Just to show how EASY it is to Dress up a Gift using the New Spellbinders A Gilded Life Vintage Brocade and Petite Monarch Dies!! I used the Vintage Brocade Die to Emboss my Box!! I LOVE the look and it dresses up a Plain Box and turns it into EXTRODINARY in just Minutes!! Then I've cut a FUN Felt Border from the Petite Monarch Die for the Front of the Box and creating a Flower too using the same Petite Monarch Die and then the Spellbinders Creating a Flower 3 Dies!! I LOVE the way it turned out!!
  

I'll be back with another project to share and I HOPE you'll visit the Spellbinders Blog and check out ALL of the Entries!! Like I said before if I'm one of the LUCKY Top 12 Entries Chosen I could win a Trip to Spellbound 3 with my AMAZING Mother, but I'd need your VOTES to WIN!! =)

HELLO!!
I'm stopping in today to share the Leather Bracelet Project I've made using the New Spellbinders A Gilded Life Products for the Spellbinders Creating A Gilded Life Contest!! =) If I'm chosen as one of the TOP 3 Projects, I could win a Trip for me and my BEAUTIFUL Mom to go to the AMAZING Spellbound 3 Retreat, All Expenses Paid!! How AWESOME would that be!!?? Well I have a couple projects that I have made for this contest and I will be sharing them ALL so I hope you'll check them all out and leave me some LOVE!! Plus, if I'm one of the Top Projects Picked I'll need YOUR VOTES to WIN!! =)
I thought it would be FUN to create a Bracelet using the New Spellbinders A Gilded Life Products!! I LOVE CHUNKY Bracelet's so I knew I wanted to start with a pretty wide band and this Brown Leather Cuff that I picked up at Hobby Lobby was the PERFECT fit!! I wanted to Emboss the Leather for a REALLY Neat texture so I ran it through my die cutting machine with a Spellbinders Embossing Plate on an Embossing mat and I REALLY LOVE the Texture it gave!! I then thought it would be FUN to add some Paint so that the texture would show up alittle more and then I sealed it using some Multi-Matte Medium!! I then took my Spellbinders A Gilded Life Large Heart Bezel and added some Ranger Vintaji Soft Pink Enamel Gel for a really FUN Two Toned look so that all of the details of the Heart Bezel would POP!! I attached it to my Cuff again using Rivets from the inside of the Bezel through the bottom side of the cuff using my Vintaji Rivet Punch!! I then added some Vintage Lace that was cut using the Spellbinders A Gilded Life coordinating Heart Bezel Dies and then added a Spellbinders A Gilded Life Relic-B to the inside of my Bezel on top of the Lace!!  I finished the inside of the Bezel off by adding some Pearls and a few pinches of some Distress Rock Candy Glitter and some Pink German Glass Glitter and I really LOVE the way it looks!! I attached the Clear Acrylic Top over the Bezel using some E6000 Glue!! Now I have a Mini Shaker Heart Bezel Leather Bracelet!! SO FUN!! =)
     

I hope you LOVE my Bracelet as much as I do and I hope you'll check out all of the other AMAMZING creations that were created for this contest over on the Spellbinders Blog!!
