Lynn's tip/technique

Just want to share a little embellishment that I LOVE doing! First of all I make my own  albums and I LOVE having things dangling from the spine of my albums... so lets get started!
First of all I used a small frame that is just plain metal.... the opening is roughly 2 inches by 2 inches.... get out your paint and crackle paint as well! ( I just use the good old crackle paint....i know it requires another step but I LOVE the look I get from it!)


wait for your frame to dry then gather up some little embellishments to add to it!
I used a flower and some little letters and a tiny little picture of one of my kids....

I use these little metal attachers...(totally don't know what to call them!) to attach to the back of things to make it easier to hang.

attach picture to the back of frame and then attach  metal attacher...i used glossy accents to adhere everything.

Voila!!! the finished embellishment! I used some wire to attach some beads and another little metl flower and then used some bead chain so that I could hang it from the spine of my album! Have one with these everyone the possibilities are endless!

Very cool. Have you done a tutorial on how to make your albums? May have to do it as several tutorials but I sure would love to see it!
