Hi
Has anyone ever made resin beads 'pandora style'.

If so any tips would be much appreciated. I would like to create some of these style beads with some PMC embedded but don't know where to start!

Thanks Hannah

I've made them using thixotropic resin and silver 'cotton reel' cores. You can buy the cores from Palmers or make your own (I prefer sterling, so make my own). I've also made them using a mould and then cored them with tube after they're cured. Both worked, but I preferred the look of the latter.
