I {Heart} Camping Necklace Tutorial

If you have been hanging around the blog for any small amount of time then you know that we love camping.  Like, seriously, love, love, love!  So I decided that we needed some new accessories to celebrate our love.  These fun, do-it-yourself I {heart} Camping Necklaces were just the ticket!

I was inspired to create these pendants by the camping t-shirt that I made for the boys a few years ago.  “I {heart} camping” is such a simple, fun sentiment!  I may have had a bit too much fun and made a whole bunch of these pendants **wink**.

The possibilities for camping images are endless!  My favorite has to be the boler trailer.  We used to have one of them when I was growing up.  I remember sitting on the roof painting the entire thing one summer.  Which image would you choose?  Camper or tent?  Giant fifth wheel? hee hee

To begin you will need the following supplies:
1.5-2.5″ round, wooden pendants {found on Ebay}
acrylic paint
small, thin paint brushes
clear sealant
pencil and eraser

Start by sketching a trailer or tent image onto a wooden pendant.
