Reversible Glass Tile Pendants

Here's a look at some new additions to my Etsy shop. I decided to try out making some glass tile pendants with photos that I've taken of flowers, etc. As you can see, I also made a pendant with one of my watercolors of my Lilly the Ladybug storybook character.

While making these pendants, I thought it would be nice to offer a reversible option to wearing the pendant. On the back of the glass tile & photo, I applied a layer of Apoxie Sculpt with a glittery coat embedded to the surface of Apoxie Sculpt. The glitter is adhered to the Apoxie surface so it won't flake off. However, to be certain, there won't be any loose glitter, I coated the surface with a protective glaze.

So how do you like the idea of a reversible glass tile pendant? And also, do you have a favorite from the pendants pictured?

Last year I did a blog post about when I made my first glass tile pendant from a starter kit. It gives a little bit of an inside look about making the pendants. If you're interested, click here.

A trip to the park, enjoying the summer weather!

I dug into some of my photo archives to find this great photo (above) of my nieces and nephew in an "impromptu" pose. Last week my nieces and nephews came for a visit for a few days with their mom. We had a good time.

Here are the four Chung kids, the newest addition being Andrew, who is now a year old. Katrina and Kristin are holding their American Girl dolls. We went to the annual American Girl warehouse sale in Oshkosh last week on Thursday. We got to the location of the sale just before noon and after waiting in line, we entered the store around 3pm. Yes, a three hour wait, which both of my nieces said was worth it. They saved up some allowance money to go shopping at the sale. They found some very cute things for their dolls.

And here is a little cutie, Andrew, on the swing at the county park in Waupun.

Here's Katrina on the tire swing. She's getting a bunny this week.

Andrew, Grandma and Jordan. Did you notice the expression on Jordan's face? He can really ham it up for the camera. I'm going to do a blog post about Jordan soon.

Look at lil' Andrew trying to climb up the slide. Did you see that he is wearing some adorable little blue croc shoes?

Awwwww...Andrew! :-)

And here are the "two peas in a pod", Kristin & Jordan!

We had a very nice day at the park in Waupun. The weather was gorgeous! Ahhh....summer!
