hi to all, lovely ring ladibgenimi!:hug:They're ALL are very nice!
now you could start with earings and pendants.
you need:
- thin metal wire (1 mm diameter max) brass, silver, copper
- light chain in the same metal (20 cm minimum)
- little medals in any metal, also plastic.
- round pliers with small points
- blue tack
You need the wire to prepare a hook for your ear. at one end open (to enter your lobe) at the other end round it with your pliers and thread a 5 cm chain, then cut.
Do the same with your medal. Shape a little piece of wire as an 8 and thread it into the medal and the chain.
Now you can stick the medal on a piece of blue tack and start working with L+P .
Gook work!
p.s. I don't have any L+P, ordered some on e-bay but is stuck at Italian customs:green:CIAO!

If peeps can send me or Mrs Clooney a message to say they want to have a go at the ring challenge it would be great, also we ned to know how much time u guys would like to produce your works of art, it's all very well us saying 5 or 7 days but work and home commitments make this difficult for some.
I am just waiting for Mrs C to come online to go through a few details but the general idea is that we have 5 geeks making their rings and matching nails sometime soon and then when they go onto a poll the next 5 can start working. So far we have 10 geeks on the list so watch this space if you've signed up for it lol.
Hugs Rachel xxxx

I made one for my daughter today, she turns 4 in July so you can imagine how small it is.
Only one problem was I did a big no no and mixed brands as I'd run out of the monomer that goes with my powder.
It is like rubber, but hey it means it's more flexible for my littlin.
I made it with clear powder and embedded some silver stars in it.
I wont upload a picture as it is a bit rough around the edges because I couldnt file it so I had to trim the edges, but my daughter was desperate for it by this point.
I will have another go once I've bought some more monomer.
Once I'd measured the form out I put it over a pen to keep the shape as it was so small!
