Things To Alter DT: Steampunk Necklace

                                                              Hi all

i am back with another post to show off this charm necklace i made using the steampuink MDF pieces form Things To Alter. I recently bought a Crop-a-dile so  i couldn't wait to have a play about with it and i am impressed.



I used the Dreaming Lady piece and i coloured the cogs in with Tim Holtz Distress Markers before using the rust effect on the rest of the head.


I used gun metal chain and cut it to about 20in before punching a hole in the top of the MDF pieces. I used the cogs grab bag to create the rusted charms with and then added offer charms around them to create the charm necklace.


I used Cinnamon to add the rust texture and the more lumpy and uneven the better.
