Multi-purposing frame charms: Inchies

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009

Quick post today!

A trend we’ve noticed in the scrapbooking world is “inchies”.  These are like little challenges to yourself: Create a nice collage in the space of a square inch (ergo the name).  What about wearable inchies?

Can you say "inchies"?!

Check out our item #49-441-0, 30mm square brass picture-frame charm!  The usable surface inside the frame is almost exactly a square inch.  This finding is perfect for gluing things onto.  You could even follow Dawno’s idea and incorporate some brass wire into your collage, for a neat faux cloisonné look.

Thanks to Amy M for this idea.  PS: a 2″x2″ collage is called a twinchie!
