OK here are the bits I came up with yesterday. I put faar to much enamel on the pendant I think, as it swamps the lovely texture a bit.
The other two bits were moulded from buttons and I am going to solder some earwires on and oxidise/polish to bring out the design.
I seemed to be a bit less prodictive than everyone else, but I think I managed to use as much clay - that pendant is chunky!
I definitely want to do some more with the enamels, it's been on my list for ages, I think it might be getting more priority now, lol!
Su, are you going to get a picture of your stuff?

There are a few things you can use cooksons have them in their enamelling section,
Carborundum stones, (designed to grind the glaze off). You use it under running water various shapes and grits about £10 a stone (they seemingly last forever )
Alundum Stones, similar to above (cheaper option) comes in three grits
Coarse Medium & fine each costing about a fiver.
Diagrit. These are sanding meshes with a sticky back. Glue em to a block of wood or whatever you prefer to use to grind off the glass.They come in loads of different grits and are about ££7 each grade
