How To Make A Brooch Out Of Old Eyeglasses
From the Designer: "Do you have old broken eyeglasses lying around waiting for the perfect craft project? You can turn them into cute retro brooches using two different decoupage methods. For this project you need - some pretty scrap fabric, mod podge, old eyeglass lenses, brooch clasp backings and some sticky back felt. This is a quick and fun project you could do in an afternoon or with kids. Time to create: 30 minutes + drying time. This is a great project to make something unique for yourself, to give as gifts or even to sell at craft fairs!"
