How to Put a Picture in a Silver Locket
Transferring a photo to a silver locket can be a little tricky, as the shape of the photo needs to match the locket dimensions. However, there are some smart solutions that are simple to implement, such as making a tracing paper template.
Using Tracing Paper
1 Open the locket. Lay it flat with the open side facing you.
2 Place a piece of tracing paper over the photo recess. The inside of the locket should have a slight recess meant to hold the photo in place. Lay a piece of tracing paper over the locket so you can see the recessed part through the paper. If you don't have tracing paper, you can use tissue paper or any thin paper you can see through.
3. Use a pencil to trace around the recess. Then use this template to circle the back of the photograph you want use.
4. Cut the photo according to the template then place into the silver locket.
NOTE: The plastic window can be a little delicate and difficult to open. Use a small tool such as a toothpick or tweezers.
