(As a side note - I remember when my niece, Jenn Fee, now an actress, did this project on Aleene's Creative Living!)
Use holiday wrapping paper and make a great accent for your coat. This is a fun project for kids too!
What You Need
Aleene's® Instant Decoupage Sealer & Finish™
Aleene's® Original Tacky Glue™
Gift wrap
Wax paper
Scissors
Scrap paper
Brush - optional
Pin back
How to Make It
1. Cover work area with wax paper. Cut out desired design from gift wrap. If design is very detailed, cut a free form area around design.
2. Cut five pieces of scrap paper slightly larger than gift wrap design.
3. Layer papers, beginning with one piece of paper and apply Instant Decoupage on one side. Instant Decoupage may be applied with a your finger or with a brush. Place this piece of paper, glue side down, on second piece of paper. Press out any air bubbles by rolling bottle over paper. Continue until you have layered all five pieces of paper. The more layers, the more solid the jewelry piece will be. Apply Instant Decoupage on top layer and place gift wrap design on layered papers. Let dry.
5. Cut around design.
6. Glue pin back on back of design.
Make It Yours! Tip
Use Christmas cards instead of gift wrap. Use as gift tags too!
Wrap It Up! Tip
If you're giving a gift of clothing - attach the pin on it and it will be an added surprise when the person opens up the gift!

I'm an old fan of the Arlene's show and miss it terribly. Jenn was a delight to watch. Is she doing TV?
