You can create personalized image jewelry with glass tiles and glue-on findings from Rings & Things. In fact, if you can cut paper and glue, you can make image jewelry! Just follow the detailed steps below to turn any image into a wearable piece of art.
Gather your supplies:
You’ll need the following components:

And you will need these additional supplies:
>> 7/8″ round paper punch from a craft store (or use a circle template and scissors)

These are so lovely. Do you have a supplier for the glue on pin findings?
Thanks

Is the process the same if using a photo instead of paper?

Hi Becky,
I haven’t tried the process with actual photos, but the paper and ink are different. I think the slick, plasticky finish of photos might cause problems. Instead, I would suggest photocopying your photos onto a lightweight cardstock. This can be done relatively cheaply at a photo-copy center.
Good luck with your project!
