How can I make a glass (or possibly resin) pendant?
I want to make small pendants similar to those of glass scrabble tile pendants, except circular. What materials do I need and how would I make it without using methods like burning, but just pouring the mixture on or something of the sort so that it won’t pose that much danger?
I don’t intend on buying a DIY kit online, but rather at an arts and crafts store.

The easiest way would be to get round, flat-backed marbles, the ones that are often used in vases or mosaics. You can get them at a craft store. They often have large and small ones. Then all you need to do is get “bails” which are little metal pieces with a flat piece to glue to the item and a loop at the top to convert it into a pendant. Get some really strong jewelry glue to attach it. Then, trim the paper or image that you want to use on the pendant to fit on the flat side of the marble, picture or pattern side against the glass so it is visible through the glass. Adhere the paper or picture with mod podge by spreading a thin layer on the flat side of the glass and laying the picture on it. You can then use the Mod Podge on the back of the pendant as a sealant. Then, just securely adhere the bail to the top of the pendant and your done!!
Hopefully I didn’t confuuse you!!
