Fall Bouquet Necklace
About this design:
For this piece, I was inspired by a walk I took with Payton last week. We were leaf collecting, the sky was deep blue and the air had that familiar Fall scent.

Helpful Hints:
|
Hint 1: Instead of filling your bezel with paper or fabric, try painting the inside of the bezel. For this piece, I painted some rich fall colors with Payton's eco friendly kids paint. I wanted to remember the way the leaves that had partially changed colors looked against the deep blue sky. Once the paint dries, fill the bezel with resin. For effect, I chose to stop pouring the resin about a millimeter from the top of the bezel. See Tip: How to Prevent Bubbles in Your Resin |
