FRIENDSHIP PUZZLE NECKLACE

A handmade friendship necklace  was made for three close friends.  


Supplies:
- three old puzzle pieces that fit together
- acrylic paint
- colored tissue paper
- acrylic varnish
- awl 
- cording

~Paint both sides of the puzzles pieces (Tip:  know which is the front; see how it will fit into the other pieces).


~Embellish the front of the pieces.  Layers of paint and strips of tissue paper were used here.


~ Cover with three coats of acrylic varnish and let dry between coats.


~Pierce a hole with an awl or very slender nail. (Tip: Put the pieces together and mark a dot at the top where the hole will go)


~Thread cording through and tie.


~Give to your friends. . .  with love.
This was lovingly made by my 12 yr old daughter for herself and two friends.


happy day!
