Cut out 3-4 pieces of thick papers and glue them together. You may also use cardboard. Use black acrylic paint to color the cut out shape and allow it to dry. After the paint dries, use a small pin to make a hole on the pendant, for attaching a jump ring.
Take a piece of thick polythene paper and cut it into a square shape. Now start rolling the paper from one corner to form a cone shape and use a small piece of scotch tape to tape the edge, to make sure the cone shape is fixed.
Make sure that the hole on the cone isn't too big, otherwise you won't be able to make detailed designs. Fill half of the cone with white glue.
Before starting to design the pendants it's a good idea to draw some designs on a piece of paper. If you're not familiar or used to making designs using cone, then you should practice a little.
Be sure that you're ready to get started with the design. Carefully and slowly press the bottom of the cone and design the pendant as you want. Too much details might smudge the whole design, so be careful.
Once you're done designing, allow the white glue to dry. This might take some hours.
After the white glue dries you'll need to apply a coat of glitter paint (gold or silver) using finger tip. Drop a small amount of glitter paint on your finger tip and apply it over the designed pendant and see the magic. After the glitter paint dries attach a jump ring to complete the pendant. Wasn't that easy and fun? Enjoy!
