book charm swap

The recipients of these little Book Charms will be able to write their own STORY on the tiny little 1 x 1 1/4 inch pages, then attach the charm as a focal piece for a necklace. My little book covers are made with mica altered with alcohol ink, paper altered to look like aged metal, a little diamond glaze for dimension...inside pages are watercolor paper...and the book is bound with eyelets, silver beads and twisted wire.

Sharon, your book charms are beautiful! I especially like the final photo where you can really see the ink detail on the mica.
