Description

Make a studded crystal heart brooch that looks a bit decoden and a bit classy at the same time. :)

Instructions

  1. Small 4

    Trace your pattern onto your base material. Cut and trim to fit each other exactly.

  2. Small 6

    Stick down the biggest pieces first, placing them randomly, then the middle sized ones.

  3. Small 8

    Fill up the remaining spaces with the smallest sized crystals.

  4. Small 9

    I didn't like the gaps, so I added more studs on top of the gaps, so it would look more like a monochromatic decoden type of thing. :)

  5. Small 10

    Glue your brooch backing to the other heart.

  6. Small 11

    Cut a small piece of rectangle, use a marker to blacken the edges and make it look neater.

  7. Small 12

    Glue it down like so to cover your brooch backing and make it look more professionally made. :D

  8. Small 13

    Again, take your marker and go over the edges once to make it look neat.

  9. Small 16

    Wear and style your new brooch :D
