Today is all about #GOLD. Adding gold to fine silver seeds. 24k gold accents comes in powder form and it is mixed with some water and a binder to create a smooth, creamy textured 24k gold paint! Use a brush to apply it. Don’t worry about the brownish colour - it is meant to be like that. With heat from a torch it fuses to the silver and et voilà sparkly gold!

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend. Apart from a hospital visit to discover that I have broken my little toe, I had a lovely weekend!
This week I will be telling a story of a ring...You might have seen this ring before but I will try to explain how it all becomes together. Ever wondered how I make them? Here is your chance to find out:
The Seeds are all individually handmade from artclay silver. This is a pliable and magical material and a delight to use. I use metalcaly and sculpting techniques to create the seeds. No one seed is the same. They are all unique. Silver clay is made of tiny silver particles, an organic binder and water. After firing, organic binder and water burns off and what is left is 999 pure silver. That’s all for today. Swipe to the second image to see my inspiration and some of the process images. More tomorrow...
