First trial of resin peices have turned out ok. I think I still need to spend some time and experiment, but it is such a fun media, I am looking forward to doing so. These are the photos, from first being pushed from the moulds and to finished product.
The magazine launch was a great event, got to meet Susie Horan, if you have not seen her work it worth a look... http://www.suziehoran.com The magazine itself is a fashion focused jewellery mag, with loads of hint, tips and makes, aimed at all levels of ability, not just aimed at new makers! Who knows, when I get my self a bit more organised, I may even try and submit something. http://www.makingjewellery.com
Just want to say thank you for being in the Spotlight on UK Handmade. http://www.ukhandmade.blogspot.com/ Have a little look, there are some very creative peeps on there, check out the ceramic beads by Karen Turner.
Have taken the plunge and ordered first batch of resin..I am looking forward to trying it out, have made silver setting to put them into...will add some pictures when first creations are ready.
Have had a busy day finishing quite a few pieces, and loading the website. Really want to keep the silver hoops, but the deal is....they go on sale for a month, if they are still there, then they are MINE all MINE!! Would add a photo, just can not work out how to do it!
