More from yesterday's post about this piece I made at Art Unraveled taught by the amazing Jen Cushman......
Easy peasy open backed bezel made with paper, a charm and Ice Resin mixed with glitter...
Don't know if you can see the bubble?
Can easily fix it by drilling into it with a dremel tool, then refilling with resin...If I wanna...
I made the bail too....
"annealed" metal with a torch, formed it around a dowel, drilled with a dremel....
(I'm no longer a torch/dremel virgin = tool shopping later Thanks to JEN!)
We made "resin paper" with the Ice Resin - then rolled into beads for our necklaces......
We made all of our headpins, connections and Jen shared her coveted rosary bead purchase with the class too....
She's the BEST!
The other side of the bezel....
My text did not get completed immersed....
But no worries....
Just add more Ice Resin!
I'll be busy "resinating" with some of that great paper my husband brought back from Taiwan
(soon to be included in my Collage Candy Kits),
and bought Jen's book for quick reference you can find here along with her teaching schedule and lots more info on this technique too....
In the meantime, have fun exploring other Wednesday workdesks around the world hosted by Julia at The Stamping Ground and tomorrow I'll post about the class I took with Mary Beth Shaw:)
