Repurposed Jigsaw Puzzle Statement Necklaces
"My neighbor had a garage sale a few weeks ago and I fell in love with one of the puzzles she had marked for $1.00! I have been thinking of puzzle necklaces and this puzzle was perfect for the project. I chose a pretty floral section and sealed the back of the section with Mod Podge and a mirror image of the section that I printed out. All that was left to do was drill holes and add my decorations!"
More Recycled Crafts You'll Love
If you enjoy creating repurposed jigsaw puzzle statement necklaces, you may also enjoy trying your hand at other upcycled jewelry projects. One fun idea is to create earrings using leftover puzzle pieces. Choose pieces that complement each other in color and shape, then attach earring hooks for a unique and eye-catching accessory.
For crafters who love working with puzzles but are looking for a break from jewelry-making, consider creating a puzzle piece wreath. Paint puzzle pieces in various shades of green, then glue them onto a wreath form to create a whimsical and colorful decoration for your home. This project is perfect for the spring season or to add a pop of color to your front door any time of year.
If you're feeling adventurous and want to challenge your crafting skills, try incorporating puzzle pieces into a mixed media art piece. Use puzzle pieces as a textured element on a canvas, or create a 3D sculpture using puzzle pieces as a base. This project allows for endless creativity and experimentation, making it a great way to push your artistic boundaries.
Whether you're a beginner looking to expand your crafting repertoire or a seasoned crafter searching for your next project, there are plenty of ways to continue exploring the creative possibilities of repurposed jigsaw puzzle pieces. Happy crafting!
