Make Art Monday!

I made this one for a new article that I’m writing for Jewelry Crafts magazine. What did you make last week?

















Wow, impressive, how did you make it?
Hi Mimi! I can’t give you step-by-steps for this one yet, because it’s going to a magazine first, but the bottom line is that it’s images and paint on wood discs
This is gorgeous! I’m totally intrigued by the wood discs and how they were made! Did you make them?
Thank you, Cheryl! I didn’t make them, only drilled out the holes a little bigger. I got them from Fire Mountain Gems, in a pack of various sizes and colors. They are very slightly domed on the fronts and flat on the backs.
Wow that is a very beautiful necklace. Very unique.
Cyndi,
In looking at this again, it really is beautiful. It looks like decoupage in the image of autumn leaves with a high glossy finish. Do you know what issue it will be in?
Well, I guess it *is* kind of decoupaged, but with paint added!
Unfortunately, I never know which pieces in which issues, but I always post about it as soon as I find out
