  Step 1

  The players...Dominoes in two sizes. Super Glue. Alcohol ink. I used Adirondack in Cloudy Blue and Sail Boat Blue. Mod Podge Dimensional magic (because it was within reach), but you could use Glossy Accents or Diamond Glaze. Round nose pliers and wire cutter, Jewelry wire, earring findings of your choice, fish manicure stickers, micro beads, metallic paint pen in silver (or gold) and tiny shells.

• 

  Step 2

  Color the smooth side of your dominoes with the alcohol ink. You can make the colors as intense as you like. I kept it light so it has a water color feeling to it.

• 

  Step 3

  Pick out the fish you would like on your dominoes. I made sure I picked out enough of the same ones so they would be mirror image on the earrings.

• 

  Step 4

  Looking cute and fun already!

• 

  Step 5

  Put a light coat of sealer of your choice on to protect the stickers.

• 

  Step 6

  Once the sealer coat is dry add some micro beads to the corners. Use the sealer as a glue. Micro beads are TINY little glass beads with no holes. I love them.

• 

  Step 7

  Add the tiny little shells before the sealer dries. I had to add a little more to the shells to make them stay.

• 

  Step 8

  AWWW.

• 

  Step 9

  Let everything dry. I let it sit overnight. then drill holes for your wire attachments, or you can glue bales to the back. I'm cheap, I make the wire attachments.

• 

  Step 10

  Paint the edges with the metallic paint pen to give it a finished look. Set aside to dry while you make your wire attachments.

• 

  Step 11

  I used the jewelry wire and a round nose pliers to make little noose looking, wire wrapped, attachments.

• 

  Step 12

  Glue in your attachments, I used Super Glue, but you can use any permanent glue of your choice. again, it was within reach. Man, I can be lazy!

• 

  Step 13

  Attach earring wires of your choice and thread the pendant onto a ribbon, cord or chain. Fun fishy set!
