For their thank you notes, my daughter-in-law cleverly turned their wedding photos into US postage stamps. I thought the stamps were so unique that I decided to fashion them into keepsakes. I found the rectangle metal frame and purse charm chain at HM Ben Franklin Crafts in the L'Bell department. It was simple to trim the stamp and resin it into the frame with a UV lamp. I added some faux pearls and glass leaves using jewelry pin heads.
I really love the way the charm holder looks on my purse. I hope my daughter-in law will love hers too, and the fact that it has room to attach more resin charms.
