1.  So, first off get a cork & a knife and slice pieces of the cork off (cut however thick you would like your pendant to be) 

2.  Get a piece of thin wire

3.  Bend your wire in half

4.  Twist the top half of your wire but leave a little bit at the very top so you have a loop for your necklace chain.

5.  Take your scissors or wire cutters and snip the ends of the wire up by the twists.  And then crimp the ends together (the twists help make sure your pendant won't fall of.  It's also is easier to poke into the cork)

6.  Take your cork piece and your pliers and push your wire loop into the round side of the cork piece.   

7.  Get your cork piece and trace it onto the scrap booking paper to make a circle

8.  Cut out the circle & Mod Podge or glue the circle on the cork.  Once you have done that put a glaze of Mod Podge or glue on top of the circle to seal it in and make it have a nice shine!

And your done! Pretty easy right? You could even fancy it up and put some rhinestones, glitter, anything really!! Thank you for looking at this collaboration craft! Don't forget to check out Pink Einstein's blog here!
