Pool noodles are for more than just fun in the pool. They're great for making necklaces with gel prints! The gel print I'm using in the video was created using a technique from one of the bonus lessons inside the workshop, Gel Printing with PanPastels acolorfuljourney.com/gel-printing-panpastels-yto
The necklace will be glued, sealed with a glossy finish, and hardened all thanks to transparent Universal Medium by Powertex powertexproductsusa.com
Transparent Universal Medium comes in three sizes. I'm using the 1 liter size in the video. powertexproductsusa.com/collections/powertex-universal-medium/products/powertex-universal-medium-transparent-1000gr

Want to play? Want to know specific ways to let go and have fun? Join the fun in my free mixed media workshop Permission to Play acolorfuljourney.com/permission-play-free-workshop
You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on YouTube and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.
