Look at how cute these glass tile pendants are! I found the glass tiles and bails to make these here. I bought my Diamond Glaze at Ben Franklin Crafts.
All you need to do is take your glass tile and clean it off. (They were a bit dusty upon arrival). Then find your favorite picture of a child (it has to be a picture from a laser printer or photo store), scrapbook paper or even a peice of fabric as the necklace design.
With a pencil trace around the tile square. When cutting out the square of paper (or other material), cut inside your line so that it fits well on the square. Coat the printed side of the paper, the side you want to see on your necklace, with your diamond glaze. You do not need a lot of diamond glaze, just a couple of small dots will be sufficient. You just need enough to cover a thin layer of the glass tile. Attach your paper to the glass tile. If any excess glaze runs out of the edges of the glass, immediately wipe it clean with a damp paper towel.
Turn your glass tile over so that you are looking at the back of your necklace. Paint a thin layer of Diamond Glaze over the entire back of the necklace and let dry.
When dry, place a small drop of Diamond Glaze onto your bail (chain attachment) and attach the bail in the exact middle on the back and at the top of your necklace.
When the glaze has dried, your necklace is finished and ready to wear. Aren't they adorable? I made a few for myself and then let the girls each pick out a design for their own necklace. My sisters don't know it yet, but they are going to be getting some of these for their birthdays this year...Surprise!
As a side note, I happened to be at Home Depot over the weekend and noticed that they sell some of these glass tile in their tile aisle. They come in sheets of about 144 and come in several different mixed colors (with some clear ones). All you would have to do is cut them apart and use some adhesive remover to get the stuff off the back of them. You could use those tiles in much the same way and have some cute colored ones as well!
**Edit--A reader informed me that there is no way to remove the adhesive from the backs of the tiles found in Home Depot. It is baked into the back of the glass tiles. Thanks Michelle!

Wow! It looks so professional. I can´t get that material here in Mexico, but next time I'm in the states, I'll stock up.
AWESOME! I have to try this!
I came over from momadvice.com.
These are incredibly cool. Very pretty and unique. Thanks for sharing your idea!
Great idea.
I hope to try this soon

Very cute! I linked to this on my weekly link roundup.
Hi, where can we buy the glass tiles?
Anonymous-
You can buy the tiles at the link I provided at the top of the post, and I have also seen other ETSY sellers for them. I also just recently saw sheets of some multi-colored ones (with some clear ones included) at Home Depot in the tile aisle.
On ETSY, did you get the small or the large bails?
Love your ideas!!!!
Anonymous--I bought the small tiles from ETSY. I just measured mine and they are 7/8 of an inch square.
When I look at the silver bails on ETSY, you can buy small or large ones (but they do not specify the actual dimension.....).
Which size fits best on the back of the tile you use?
Thanks so much for sharing your very clever and creative ideas!!
Anonymous--The bails I bought measure from top to bottom, 5/8 of an inch.
I can't wait to make these! Your ideas rock! I did have a question about the necklace part of this project...where do you find the necklace (or chain) part that doesn't look "cheesy"? I appreciate your help!
I've already done a few of your ideas and LOVE them!! I'm a huge fan!
So adorable! Then again, everything on here is!! I LOVE all of your ideas! Your site is one of the first that I open each day to see what is new! Thanks!!
I want it now dude!!!
What a great idea and it looks so easy! Thank you so much for sharing!
How do you prevent air bubbles. I did a few this weekend but my favs ended up with tiny air bubbles :(
My girls (ages 7 & 4) and I did this and it was fabulously fun. We bought our supplies at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6465686§ion_id=5746861
We're planning to do this again!
I absolutely love this idea. I want to make some for Christmas! What a great gift! I also was wondering about the chain part of your project. Where did you get the chain in the pics? All of the ones I have found online look pretty "cheesy".
Thanks again for you idea

Just so you all know, the ones at Home Depot can't be cleaned up to be clear (not the colored ones, the 'clear' ones) to use for this exact necklace. The white stuff on the back is baked into the back. I took the tiles to Home Depot and they tried their heaviest remover on it and it didn't even budge. Just FYI.
Michelle--Thanks for the info! I wondered if that would come off! I will make an edit in my post so you save others their money and effort on those! Thank you!
