Sheet Music Mother’s Day Charm Necklace

Jewelry· Mother's Day· Necklaces

With Mother’s Day right around the corner, I’ve been working on a few handmade gifts for the special moms in my life. I’ll start by saying that I’m a beginner level jewelry maker, it’s something I really enjoy but still have a lot of learning to do. This necklace that I’m sharing with you today is definitely a beginner level, but makes a great Mother’s Day gift. It’s very easy to do and easily customizable to everyone’s preference with scrapbook paper and cute charms.

Mother's Day Sheet Music DIY NecklaceSupplies needed to make your own DIY necklace for Mother’s Day:

  • Square Charm Frame
  • Swarovski Charm
  • Heart Charm
  • Scrapbook Paper
  • Mod Podge Dimensional Magic
  • Mod Podge
  • Necklace Chain
  • Brush

mod podge necklaceStep one: Start by cutting the scrapbook paper to fit inside of the charm; mine was about a one inch square. Use Mod Podge to glue the paper onto the charm then brush a thin layer of Mod Podge on top of the paper. I learned this step the hard way! On my first attempt, I applied the dimensional magic directly onto the paper and it made the colors bleed. My fellow design team members suggested sealing the paper with a layer of Mod Podge first, which worked perfectly. Thanks ladies! 🙂

Here’s a tip: don’t shake the bottle prior to using, it can cause air bubbles to form. If you have an air bubble in your necklace, carefully pop it with a needle or toothpick. Allow the dimensional magic to harden for at least 3-5 hours, preferably overnight.

I like the look of the loose charms – it makes it easy to add new charms or switch out the current ones.

    Did you use printed scrapbook paper with the music design on it, or did you
    draw it separate, I could not find any scrapbook paper with a musical scale on it
    and it would be so useful for me as my grandkids all are in band etc. Any help
    you can give me would be appreciated….
