monstera leaf cut outs for blog post about julie Godsey's monstera jewelry

Making Monstera Jewelry!

I wanted to share a little behind the scenes as well as highlight my... obnoxious need for detailed accuracy for everything I make 😂. 
First I took a photo of one of the beautiful leaves of my Monstera Deliciosa plant with a sheet of white paper behind it to better isolate the details.

Then I edited the photo by using the background remover in Canva and made the image black and white. When you're sawing out designs the higher the contrast the easier on your eyes!

I repeated the image on a Canva page to fit as many in as possible before printing and then I printed it on label paper so it sticks to the metal!

All for the love of plants and accuracy and accurately wearing those plants as jewelry 🤓.
