Introducing Paint-Your-Own-Ceramic kits
Q&A
Q: DO THE KITS HAVE ART SUPPLIES?
A: No. You have everything you need already.
Common materials most of us already have are the art supplies.
For example: Use no 2 pencils and a xerox copy to create a portrait of your pet. OR use crayola markers and nail polish. OR use pressed leaves and flowers and clear glue. OR print out your QR code and create some graphics so you can advertise your business.
This is your personal blank canvas. It can take any medium you have, to create anything you like. No special equipment is needed to create something cool, beautiful, purposeful, unique, crazy or inspired.
ECONOMICAL
When you're ready for a new design, wash or erase or sand off the old one and start over! An almost unlimited amount of do overs.
NO SKILLS REQUIRED
Whatever you are inspired to make can be made and can inspire others. This kit is about your ideas, your expression of creativity. AND if you need some inspiration… take some of mine! I have plenty and I want to share it. That is why I have links, photos, social media videos, etc. where I create and transform the pendants, all the while hoping that you will embrace some creativity in your own life. I hope showing you what I and others have made will inspire you.
WHAT IS INCLUDED?
Open up the insert and you will see photos, a list of materials to try, links to my Instagram and Facebook with videos of me making pendants, my website where you can buy kits or contact me, 2 bonus pendants-3 total- each box has different kinds and a 24” adjustable silk & satin cord in black.

A huge thanks to Bryan Kramp of Fox 6 Wake Up, and his amazing camera man!
I created these. The spiky one is a cut up cat brush, the moon is Elmers glue, white out and black colored pencil, lizard eye is colored pencil, marker and rubbing alcohol, the star heart is a piece of discarded birthday wrapping paper and clear spray varnish, the heart with wire is from the bottom of my waste paper basket: old nail poish, wire and a piece of glitter.
