DIY Vintage brooch tree art. Christmas craft with me! 🎄

[@daniellesbricks784]

Oh my goodness it came out so beautiful! You sold me I am making one for my mom and mother in law. Especially mother in law because she gifted me pounds of her old jewelry. I was also turning it into new pieces but I still have so much between that and my estate hauls ❤ Happy Holidays!!

Did you put the larger pieces down first? Did you gather jewelry-charms w a theme in mind?

[@naturesglitter_mel]

Yep, I arranged them how I wanted them first, then started gluing the larger bottom ones on first. I was hunting for Christmas colors and Christmas pins this time around. I still want to make a Halloween one someday also. Or one with purples/blues or all flowers. There are so many different variations you could make with this art. ♡

[@loopthetube]

Do you have to take backs off and if so how? Like clip on earings.

[@naturesglitter_mel]

I didn't take any of the backs off and it worked just fine. If it's not lying flat in a way that you like, you could probably take them off, but I'm not sure how to do that, all jewelry is a bit different. I change a lot of jewelry up into something new though, and in the past, I've been able to take things apart easier with a needle nose pliers or jewelry style pliers which you can buy anywhere you buy jewelry making items, I got mine at Walmart. Those really help me with the tiny items. I hope that helped a little! I found leaving the backs on sometimes made it easier to get this lifted up a bit too, for the glue to reach the material, it gave a really pretty 3D look! Good luck on your art if you make one!! ✨️ have a good week!

[@jeaninserra7436]

What type of glue are you using

[@naturesglitter_mel]

@jeaninserra7436 im just using regular hot glue in this video, but when i do another one, I'd like to try to use E6000 along with the hot glue, or possible a fabric glue as well, just in case the hot glue fails on the pins. But so far it's still holding up years later!
