Up-cycle Lace Chandelier Pendant Kit Using Mod Podge Dimensional Magic

July 17, 2015 by judithjacob 4 Comments

Up-cycle Lace Chandelier Pendant Kit Using Mod Podge Dimensional Magic
Turn old lace curtains into stunning vintage style pendants.

You Will Need
One 50x35mm chandelier baroque pendant
Section of old lace curtain
Fine precision scissors
Head pin or wire
Mod Podge Dimensional Magic*

*We recommend Mod Podge Dimensional Magic (or even Rangers Glossy Accents) This project wouldn’t really work with Diamond Glaze as from personal experience Diamond Glaze tends to bubble and you run into problems when you start to layer it over 2mm. Also Mod Podge Dimensional Magic doesn’t really take long to dry. You can use the original Mod Podge Gloss but the Mod Podge Dimensional Magic seals the lace at the end with a smooth finish.

1. . Cut the lace into a generous rectangle that fits around the pendant (see picture below). On the back of the glass chandelier pendant apply a layer of Mod Podge Dimensional Magic. Push out any bubbles from the Dimensional Magic and lay the lace on top. Push the lace down, make sure the Dimensional Magic covers the back of the pendant (if it runs into the outside of the lace this ok as it makes the lace in the next step easier to cut). If the Dimensional Magic runs into the front of the glass pendant clean up with a damp cloth. Take the head pin and push through the hole the top of the pendant and the lace. Allow to dry flat.

2. When the Dimensional Magic is dry, remove the head pin and take your scissors and cut the lace to fit the pendant. When happy apply a layer of the Dimensional Magic to seal the lace and help stick down the lace if it lifted. Take the head pin and push through the hole the top of the pendant and let the Dimensional Magic dry.

3. When dry add to your jewellery designs.

    This is fantastic ! What a beautiful way to use lace.
    Does the process work as well with cotton and nylon laces ?
    I just adore the vintage look.
