Dear Paper Crafts,
I have a confession to make. I can't deny it any longer. I have fallen for a new love. Jewelry making! Particularly 'Photo Jewelry'.
As you can see from my spiffy new blog design, that's what I've been up to. Oh I will still be here with more fun and fabulous papercrafts, but cupid wants me to add another love to my life. This new jewelry design is not only fun to create, but I love how happy it makes everyone. I'm especially excited about the bracelets. I can make those with 7 of whatever photos, images or quotes you would like. You can even choose a specific color background for the quotes images. Even just black and white. The options are endless! Thus, my new name. "Imagine Photo Crafts". You will also find my Etsy shop has the same new name. There is a list of my new website addresses at the bottom of this post.
I completely adore being Grammie, but with my new love, it was time for a new name. And "Imagine" is exactly what I do best. When I look at almost anything, my instant thought is not only what it is, but what it could be! When you think of it that way, I could quite easily become a hoarder, if I wasn't careful. But thankfully, I hate clutter equally as much as I love creating. So, a place for everything and...well you know.
With my new photo jewelry, you can choose every aspect of the design. From all the various neckwear to choose from, to the type of clasp you prefer. Metal chain to ribbon, cord, or combos of all types of neckwear, at any length you choose. Also, unless you choose a toggle clasp, the neckwear will be designed to easily slide the photo pendant off. This will give you the option of changing it to other ribbon neckwear colors or matching chain. These will also be available in any mix and match design from my additional listings.
Other options will include antique and fun color images of your photos, like sepia and funky tranlucent colors. And images that aren't photos at all, but fun quotes, or a favorite image you may love or be known for.
There will be masculine options too, like leather or suede and cord neckwear. As well as other items for either gender including, keychains, rearview mirror ornaments, bookmarks. Several items that would make awesome personalized gifts for the guys. I love that. We all know how hard it is to shop for our guys. But even guys of any age love photos of their loved ones.
All of this will be available to you through Etsy or plain old email.
This is how it works:
1. Just go to in my Etsy Shop www.imaginephotocrafts.etsy.com and choose the item you'd like personalized with a photo.
2. At check out, in the "notes" box, list all the options you want for your item. If you'd rather I choose. Color and style will be based appropriate to the image you choose. But I do need the length you prefer.
3. Choose a photo and email it to me at kram744@yahoo.com
4. I'll edit and size it, then email you a proof of the how the image will look,
for your approval.
That's it!
Be sure to read the photo emailing instructions carefully to get the best image for your jewelry and other items. I'm also working on options that will allow you to order right here from my website.
Be sure to keep checking back here and my new Etsy store for additional new products, and place your order for me to create a custom design that you imagine.

Instructions for best results when emailing photos:

For groups of people in your photo, the format of the group will determine the shape of pendant it will best fit. I will send you the recommended shape of pendant when I email your pendant proof.
Do NOT crop your photo ~ it works best if I do that for you.
Close-up shots of people or animals work better than when they are very small in the photo. However, with very clear good quality photos, even a 1 inch square pendant can be created, with an entire group of 5 or 6 people, if they are posed close together. (See example in my Etsy shop)
If you email me your photo, it is the best quality, if you scan your photo at 300 dpi.
If you use a digital camera, take the picture at the highest quality setting.

If you use a digital camera, take the picture at the highest quality setting.
In addition: We can sometimes correct minor flaws in your photo or change your photo to a sepia tone or black and white photo at no extra charge.
Finally, various shapes work better with groups of people, depending on how they are posed. Look at your photo and try to determing if the person or group is posed vertically, horizontally or square. If you're not sure, just email it to me and I will edit it and send you my suggestions.
