The author personally started making narrative collaged necklaces about 10 years ago, after being inspired by an artist friend. She would take mini images from magazines and collage them together onto laminate tile samples from a hardware store. She then adds colorful brads and stickers, and then paint and oil pastel over them, finally sealing them with a polyurethane sealant. She adds a textural string, buttons, raffia and voila--she has a fun piece of art that tells a story about who she is. In this article, the author describes how her students made their own narrative necklace.
