I’ve kind of made two things this week, so I’ve decided to catch up as I think I fell behind a little while back. This bangle has vintage sewing pattern inside and reclaimed buttons and was made for vInTaGe VioLeT, who has been providing me with little tags to label my jewellery up. I also [...]

The plugs have now been cast, here’s how I did it… Mixed resin and poured into mould, filling it 3/4 full. Left to set. Sprinkled watch parts on surface of cured resin. Topped up with catalysed resin to top of mould and left to cure again. Demoulded.

Today I got another custom order on Etsy for some earplugs, after determining how they should look and the size, I made the model for the mould. It is made from a Police “Kill Your Speed” pen barrel which nicely was 1cm in diameter, and sawed it 30mm in length. I then mixed some Milliput [...]
