Cut Out + Keep

Music Notes Necklace

cardboard charms made of old sheet music

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/music-notes-necklace • Posted by Christina Y.

This was so easy but turned out great, plus it costs next to nothing. If you don't have any sheet music (or none that you want to cut up!), just Google the sheets for your favourite song, and download and print the pdf. I cut the pieces of paper out and glued them to pieces of cardboard, then covered them in nail polish. I pinched a jump ring into each. In addition to the clear nail polish, i also used a layer of translucent off-white to give it an older look. Note: make sure to have doubles of each charm (to cover both sides), they flip over a lot and the music notes look a lot better than the cardboard underneath :)
