DIY Space Nebula Galaxy Poured Acrylic Skin Necklace Pendants 2 Ways!

Space Nebula and Galaxy Necklace Pendants - your accessories can match your paintings!



It is so fun to use up those spill over poured acrylic paints that dry on the freezer paper to make incredible acrylic skin!

I show you step by step how to make these fun inchies into wonderfully easy pieces of jewelry!

By peeling the paint off the freezer paper and using scissors to trim the skins to the right size you can glue it all up and have a fantastic piece of art to wear any time!

Materials:
Clear Gloss adhesive for Jewelry (I used Lilly D's Glaze Gloss Cabochon Glue - https://www.lillyds.com/) Any thing that dries smooth and crystal clear will work!
1 inch square Jewelry blanks - (I got mine on Amazon)
1 inch square 25mmx25mm Clear Glass Dome Cabochons (I got mine at Amazon)
Black Satin Necklace Cord with lobster clasp (I got mine on Amazon)
5ml plastic disposable Pipette
Liquitex Pouring Medium

The Paints:
Artist Loft Acrylic Paint Phthalo Blue, Brilliant Magenta, White. All were mixed with Liquitex Pouring Medium in a ratio of 2 parts pouring medium to 1 part paint. Each color in their own little cup.

The skin was formed by the extra paint that spilled off of the canvas in my Red, White and Blue Experiment. I have linked that painting in the iCard on this video!

There's no silicon oil or torching in my projects as I really worry about the possible side effects of heating the acrylic paints and the materials they are made from. I'm also concerned with the possible issues down the line with the paint not forming a good bond with the surface because of the oils preventing proper adhesion.

We all have to weigh the pros and cons of how we interact with our art supplies. Experimenting can be exciting and beautiful, but there can be consequences we don't know about yet. As with any thing in life be informed by reputable sources and your own common sense. :)

The most important things you need to be successful with any of my creative projects are the willingness to learn and to be easy on yourself as you are learning. We tend to be our worst critics and we need to learn to be kind to ourselves.

I love the community that we are building here. We are caring and supportive of all levels of crafters, makers and Artists.
