Domino pendants
These are another thing I was playing with this week. Made from some dominoes I got for 50 cents at a garage sale, the whole intact box full! I colored them with alcohol inks, then drilled a hole with my trusty Dremel and put the little eye screws in. Very colorful, I like them! I'll probably give them away. Be well.

My daughter used dominoes & scrabble tiles to make pendants & bracelets too!! These are so pretty! Love, Marilyn xxoo
I can't get over what the alcohol inks do on these! I have a box of dominoes I bought at a dollar store (not old, but cheap!!!) and have wanted to do *something* with them. Of course, tightwad has not bought the alcohol inks..... <:D So maybe I'll jus GLUE something on! These so rock!!!! BEAUTIFUL.
Anne, I found a great deal on alcohol inks on ebay. Never hurts to check there, it was cheaper than buying from a store even with postage. Not quite the same as instant gratification from a local store though.
Jan, these are beautiful. I've got lots of dominoes. Hey, maybe you'd like to give us a workshop??? I bet the other girls would love these. ??? They're just beautiful.

Thanks, Marilyn! They were fun to make and so easy! I need to get some more of the little eye screws now.
