As most of you already know I made some fabulous monogrammed necklaces for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. It is super easy!
First, I used my Cricut to cut perfect 3/4 inch circles out of scrapbook paper and I cut vinyl letters also using my Cricut. I laid the paper with the resin letter inside each charm on a paper towel.
I purchased a Resin Kit at Hobby Lobby and followed the directions on the box.
I actually put enough resin onto each charm to form a dome of resin. The pics aren’t perfect, but hopefully you are able to see how much resin I used.
** WARNING ** When using Resin use disposable everything. The first time I used my own measuring spoon from the kitchen and never got it completely clean. This time I used a plastic disposable teaspoon and throw away cups. When I was done I threw everything away and didn’t have to attempt to clean anything.
I covered each charm with a cup and let it dry for 3 days… Yeah, it was hard for my daughter to wait.
They turned out so cute! The girls just loved them. 
They look especially fabulous in the little metal cases.

My favorite posts are your party ideas!
I just recently came across your blog! My daughter is only 21 months old, so some things are a little advanced for her yet, but I have pinned many of your craft ideas and tutorials!
Thanks Danielle! I’m sure in the next year you’ll find things that will pertain to your daughter. It’s amazing what they can do at a young age. Thanks for stopping by!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS! I WAS GOOGLING IDEAS FOR USING A CRICUT AND CAME ACROSS THIS. THIS JUST MAY BE ONE OF THE FIRST PROJECTS I DO WITH MY CRICUT. DO I GET THE CHARMS FROM HOBBY LOBBY AS WELL? THANKS FOR THE GREAT IDEA!
Thanks Sheri! I got the charms at Pick your Plum, but I believe they have them at Hobby Lobby too. Enjoy!
