    Globecraft Memories New Piccolo Charm line!

    I have been working on so many art projects that I am lucky I had the time to take photos of them before they were sent off! I once again had the wonderful opportunity to work with Globecraft Memories as a designer/product design and development on of their new line of Piccolo charms. By now you know about the Piccolo Card Toppers and the Piccolo embellishments. They have added a new Piccolo Charm line! Steampunk gears, hearts, kitties, sea life, angels, butterflies, horses, keys and silhouettes are just a few of the new kit themes in the charm line. With each kit you can make anything from a necklaces, earrings, lapel pins, wineglass charms, curtain tiebacks, rear view mirror dangles and much more!

    Like all of the Piccolo Card Toppers and the Piccolo embellishments, the Piccolo Charm line is made from a high quality chipboard. To make the charms more durable and able to handle daily wear and tear I use Glastique Flexible Finishing Glaze (Gloss) on all of the pieces to give it flexibility, strength and a enamel-like finish. The Piccolo Charm sets will be available soon at Globecraft Memories, so watch their website for product updates. I have been merrily making up product samples of this new line to be displayed at upcoming shows for Globecraft Memories, and here is a few:

    This set I turned into Butterfly shoulder duster earrings. Sticker gems, stamp-pad ink and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    This lovely Heart lock and key set I felt would be perfect for a faux vintage necklace. Sticker gems and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    I love Steampunk gears and I wanted to something different with a Emerald City themed necklace and earring set. Sticker gems and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    The Sea-life set is perfect for Summer and I put a textured heavy coat of Glastique on this piece to mimic the look of water. Acrylic paint and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    Another lovely Steampunk gears kit that I turned into a lapel pin. Acrylic paint, sticker gems, stamp-pad ink and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    The Silhouette set I made into a hostess gift set, with a wine bottle tag, matching hostess necklace and wine glass charms. Barbie meets Girls Night! Sticker gems and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    One of the many lovely Flourish sets, I wanted to try a faux vintage look with copper highlighting the amazing detail in the flourishes. Acrylic paint and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    They have so many butterfly sets, though this set is one of my favorites since it lends so well to faux enamel. Sticker gems and Globecraft Memories’s Piccolo Enamel Powders.

    Untill next time, Safe Travels!
