Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace
Hello All,
If you are fan of Essential oil then this instructable is for you, you love the presence of your favourite EO around you. Well to keep it in that way, you must definitely try these pendants. They are easy and fun to make and look fancy to wear. Let's get into the making process
Supplies
1) Fevicryl mouldit - 1 No
2) Essential oil (your choice)
3) Shape cutter
4) Roller
5) Parchment paper
6) Food colouring (optional)
7) Jute threads - green, pink, yellow (not shown in pic) or lether
8) Jump rings - 6 Nos
9) S hook - 3 Nos
Prep You Base
What I got is more like epoxy compound, resin and hardener will be separate you have to combine them to make 3D objects. Mixing should be done evenly, roll and roll finally you'll have even white coloured outcome
Round Cut Out
Roll out your clay about 1/8" thickness and make cutout of round using circle shape cutter or any object with round base. I used a perfume bottle cap
Poke and Imprint
Before drying you have to poke a hole for thread to pass through, make sure the hole is big enough to pass through two times of thread. If you have small stamps, they will be very useful here, unfortunately I didn't have those so I cut fresh peppermint leaf and kept on the clay to imprint it. Rolled it gently
Paint It
I didn't have any water based or acrylic colour , so I painted using food colouring
Rose Time
Another pendant I started by giving colour and mixed it with clay, it gave a awesome marbled pink colour, then I used silicone mould, pressed the clay firmly and pierced it through tooth pick and let it sit for couple of minutes
Third Pendant
Likewise, I poured few drops of blue to clay and mixed it with clay to obtain marbled sky blue colour
Snow Flake
Then using snowflake cutter I pressed and exacted the snow flake shape in beautiful blue colour, there were extra little bits removed then using knife all these modification can be done only before hardening. With the extra clay I even made beads
EO Time
Rose pendant for Rose EO, Leaf pendant for Peppermint EO and Snowflake for refreshing lemon
Testing With EO
I dropped 4-5 drops of Peppermint EO on the leaf pendant, first thing colouring didn't get affected. It took few minutes to absorb and later smelled divinely
Smooth
Even though I had a perfect round cutter, they were little non round place, have to even the surface. Hence I used silicon carbide paper to smooth up the texture and structure
Jute Thread
Cut the thread as per your requirement, by determining how big i.e., what you length you want, Insert the mid line and loop it with end to tie a knot. It was looking dull I gave another coat of colour on it
Extra Something...
If you wanna add cute little things, you can add by using jump rings looping thread and heart
Final Procedure
Tie knot with jump rings and connect them with S hook.
Do the Same
Do the same for rose and for snowflake is there is no hole I tied by three ways and knot to give beautiful look on the front and hold firmly as well.
