Bagues "vintage" en verre

Je viens de mettre en ligne mes bagues au look très vintage, sur ma boutique en ligne à ALittleMarket. Il y a quatorze bagues avec un diamètre d'environ 3 cm et deux avec un diamètre d'environ 2 cm. Chaque bague est constituée d'une VRAIE photo (prise dans les années 50s pour la plupart), d'un petit "objet" (le plus souvent un coeur de couleur vive - rouge de préférence), et d'un ou plusieurs mots.



J'ai eu l'idée de ces bagues, après avoir lu le merveilleux livre de Giuseppina Cirincione, paru en mai 2006 : «Collage Lost and Found: Creating Unique Projects With Vintage Ephemera», dont voici la page 94 montrant bien la technique que j'aime tant et que j'ai utilisée.
