My New Best Friend

This is my new best friend...

I've used it on so many countless jewelry projects lately.  I especially loved it for my magnetic necklace.  I also made my mom a "lucky" watch band using this stuff for her birthday because she is a St. Patty's Day baby.  As of lately my favorite thing to use it on is washer necklaces.  I'm currently working on a washer bracelet as well.  Here is the newest one I made (or I should say the hubs, he had so much fun watching me make them that he tried one as well).  I love this one because it isn't like all of the other washer necklaces out there.   It's just a large circular pendant instead. 
I think it kind of looks like a campaign button with the size and rounded edges!  Didn't the hubs do such a great job.  Here is the picture of the washer he used that we got at Lowe's for 10 cents!

What really happened was he like the look of the front before cutting out the center and just decided to leave it that way. 

We drilled the hole prior, then I picked some of my paper from my digital scrapping and overlaid a photo mask to give it a linen look, printed the picture, traced the washer, cut out the paper with an xacto knife and then used Mod Podge to glue it on and cover the top as well.  After the Mod Podge dried I used the magnificent Diamond Glaze and let it dry.  Once it was done I attached cording and I just love it.
