You Will Need (9 things)

  • Watercolor Paper
  • watercolors
  • Brush
  • Colored Pencils
  • Sharpie Pen(s)
  • Pendant Bail
  • Glass Cabochon
  • Modge Podge
  • Necklace Chain

Steps (3 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Measure your art shape using the glass cabochon as a guide. Draw your whale or any other creature you choose.

  2. 2

    Use watercolors to paint the whale. When the paint is dry, use colored pencils to accents. Then, outline the whale using a black Sharpie to define it.

  3. 3

    Cut out your art piece and glue it using Mod Podge into the pendant finding. Allow a few minutes for it to set. If you like, you can paint the rim of the pendant with a Sharpie paint marker. Paint the picture with a thin coat of Mod Podge and place the glass cab onto the picture. Allow to dry for a few hours. Once the pendant is dry, add your necklace chain.
