My newest creation attempt!
It has been ridiculously long since I posted anything. Life gets busy.....I get lazy...you know.
I have always liked the idea of making jewelry. I haven't really attempted any, although I do keep buying pieces to work with.
My newest tools! They are, yes, I have to say, darn cute! The purple adjustable is actually a regular sized tool.
Wow - the photo makes it look like I have a marble work surface?! I wish! It's a cardboard table lined with wax paper. But if you want to see it as marble, that's fine by me!
I saw a post, or picture, or pinterest on resin jewelry. After about a week of googling, I was ready! I bought EnvironTex Jewelry resin, a shape punch and an Arizona Green Tea can. Here's my craft area, gathering all possible items. Which weren't all possible items, I needed gloves, toothpicks, my molds, wax paper, tape, Q-tips, cotton swabs and project covers. I also had to drink the tea.
Do you see the big silver thing in the back. That's my KNK Zing that lives on the table. It had to take a back seat today. Sorry Zing, I still love you!
In here it shows the heart shape I punched (bottom right corner, ridiculously small to see), the can I punched it from, my awesome super titanium cut anything scissors my new E6000 (love this stuff) and my almost gone squished up E6000 along with various other things I may or may not use. Again, sorry Zing. Next time. The really weird head shaped thing is not a zombie head, it was my son's attempt at a monkey in 7th grade art class. I used it to hold down the metal pieces I had glued back to back. His hat is around here somewhere....
I measured and mixed and poured and now....the worst part. The 24 hour wait. UGH!
Wish me luck!!
