Keyboard Domino Pendant

This project takes a steady hand and some patience, but it's inexpensive and requires no special tools. It takes about an hour and a half of work, plus an overnight to dry. 

I made this project at TechShop San Francisco. 

Step 1: Materials

You will need:

-Miniature dominoes - a pack of 28 can be purchased at a game store for $3.95
-Black thread*
-Black cardstock/paper
-X-acto knife
-Mod Podge or other decoupage 
-3D Crystal Lacquer
-Aanraku jewelry bails - found at stained glass shops and online
-E-6000 adhesive
-Chain

* Synthetic thread will not fray and will give you sharper lines between your white keys. Cotton thread simply looks like thread and has a more DIY look.
