These necklaces start with a 1 1/5" wooden disc. A small detail print of one of my original paintings is secured onto the primed disc, enhanced with Derwent Inktense colored pencils and finished with Golden polymer varnish for colorfastness and moisture resistance. The backs of the discs are painted using acrylic pigments or paint, then they are added to cord, chains, wire, or my handmade necklaces. Each one is different, and each one has it's own story. And each is instilled with a little bit of magic.

This necklace was made using a funky and chunky green chain, organza ribbon, beads, and charms. I had purchased the beautiful green Italian bead some time ago and didn't know what to use it for - this was the perfect time. I attached it to the green chain, added the beaded organza ribbon, and attached the pendant. I used a vintage dangle from an old necklace, a bird charm, and a flower charm that came off an old purse.
