DIY GEOMETRIC PAINT + GLITTER PENDANTS

I had a good many wooden discs left over from this pendant DIY. I was playing around with them the other day and came up with this idea. It's a really neat little project because after making one, you won't want to stop. I sat at my desk and made all of these at once...I actually couldn't stop. Lots of different designs are easy to come up with, too. The wood background looks really stylish with all different color combinations, and the glitter adds a little sparkle. Here are the supplies you'll need:

a few supply notes: I recommend Martha Stewart all-purpose craft paint for this because it's super smooth and goes on in even coats though any craft paint will be fine // the glitter I used is also Martha Stewart brand // the bails (above) are what the necklace goes through; I got mine in the beading section in AC Moore // my discs are 1.5 inches

Mark off the first area you want to paint with tape. Press along the edge of the tape with your finger to make sure it's all stuck down to get a clean line. Paint the section; it might take two or three coats. Let dry then remove tape.

Start your second color section by taping over what you just painted. Then add more pieces of tape to make your next shape. Paint; remove tape. (I'm pretty sure you could all figure out how to do all this....but I just wanted to share a step-by-step to show the whole process)

Tape off your glitter section completely. Apply Mod Podge and shake on glitter. Once it's all set and tape-free, paint over the whole thing with Mod Podge to keep the glitter in place. To avoid spreading the glitter over the whole pendant, I covered the painted areas first, then dabbed Mod Podge over the glitter section.

When completely dry, glue bail to the back of pendant. Let dry and string your necklace.

I hope you enjoy this DIY - below are all the designs I've come up with so far. What I'm going to do with all these, I do not know. You can easily make brooches out of these, too, by using some pinbacks. So that's what a few of these will end up as. Let me know if you try these out - I'd love to see what designs you come up with.
