Personalized Lip Balm

Personalized Lip Balm

Designed by: Treasure It®
Skill Level: Beginner
Estimated Time: 15 minutes

Never misplace your lip balm at the waterfront again! Simply decorate it with lanyard, metallic thread, and micro beads!

Materials needed:

• your favorite sunscreen for lips
• Treasure Tape 4" x 6" sheet
• Kreinik #12 Braid in your choice of colors (we used 092 pink)
• Lanyard
• Letter beads to spell your name
• Diamond Beadlets®
• shallow pan or tray

Instructions:

1. Start by cutting 4x6 sheet to fit around the top and the base of the lip balm.
2. Peel back red protective liner on base and wrap metallic thread around until the whole piece is covered.
3. Next peel off the liner from the top. Bead your name or initials on lanyard and wrap it around the top, pressing it into the tape for an instant bond.
4. Dip into Diamond Beadlets to fill in where sticky tape is still exposed.

Tips: When applying "stringy embellishments" like ribbon, embroidery threads and fibers to double-sided Treasure Tape, you can easily pull up the design and start again if you make a mistake or want to try a different design. When using red liner Treasure Tape it is best to cut with Teflon® coated scissors -- or use adhesive remover to wipe the residue off your
scissors.
