odd question here. the little gold flakes that come in your bottle of Goldschlager.
has anyone used them? I'm thinking of trying some keum-boo on a PMC piece one of these days, when I have a bit of...
ha! got it. so, I was inspired by a bit of tree bark I found on the sidewalk. I used fingers, fingernails, a small knife to get the shape right. cheated, and used a premade bail. but i did my own...
hmmm. still not getting it right. let me try again.
thanks! it seems a bit quieter here than before, but that can be a good thing.
i'll see if I can download a pic. i'm just enjoying finding sparks of creativity, whenever I find the time.
it does pay to read a bit. you just answered a question re photos for me. thanks!
well, I'm still thinking about a kiln, and still thinking about the paragons that have been recommended.
but my work has progressed a bit, so the investment will be worth while.
for some reason I...

hello, I'm Carolyn in Canada. I sort of prowled around on this forum quite some time ago, (i year? 2 years? have no idea), and then got kind of busy. at 61, I decided to go back to school. God only...
Merry christmas!!!
its' beautiful, and I would use it as a shawl pin.
I have VERY fine hair, even bobby pins slide out.
I use my $5 found at garage sale cordless drill to twist wire. I can set the speed, or reverse it. Super simple!
you need a drill with a keyed or keyless chuck, the snap-on ones don't work, (Like...
more lasting than you'ld think, actually! It's baked, and ends up being porcelain like. I have ornaments on my tree that are over 20 years old, despite being tossed around loose in boxes. just...

so I made this.
bakers clay (salt, flour, water) with a nail polish finish. I had fun making it, and might try something like it, but a little more...
I like it. I have a TON of amber sitting in jars and boxes (russian family connections..) and you've given me some ideas.
am wondering, though, if you found certain swear-words to be more...
very nice!!
oh my gosh, I just realized it looks like the logo of the VERY old TV show!!
wow. talk about a buried whatchmacallit!
thankyou, Dennis. I had rotated it on my phone, and it downloaded to the computer the right way, but by the time it got here, it was back to the original.
well, she Is the saint of bus drivers....
and decided what to give my bus driver for Christmas. Was going to be cookies, or chocolates, but this will be more fun:

dear god, my head just exploded.
I think I like the "take the depth, take the width, add together, and voila" school of measuring. :)
It's 4:25 am.
I've just begun my first cup of coffee.
I might have to skip work and go back to bed after poking my nose into this topic. :D
I would happily wear all of them, but mostly the red stone with the double band. Very nice.
I did the original in wax. started out as a flat disk, then used fingers, nut pick, and some old dentist tools. made a mould of it using silicone. the pressed the PMC into the mould. I don't draw...
