Blue-on-Blue - Ring
|
Created by: Mollie Valente
1 #51-500-10 Adjustable 14mm round finger ring for gluing, sterling silver
1 Artisan-made fused glass cabochon **
Tools and supplies:Epoxy 330 adhesive (#60-230) , ring mandrel (#69-151)
TIPS:
* Clean glass and ring with rubbing alcohol and glue with two-part epoxy.
* Place the ring on a level surface while the adhesive cures. Turn a cardboard box over and poke a hole in the box with a pen or other sharp object, and set the ring in the hole.
** NOTE: Mollie Valente creates these cabochons by upcycling her imperfect handmade lampwork glass beads. Read her article “Upcycling Wonky Beads” in the Summer 2009 issue of The Flow magazine(http://www.theflowmagazine.com).
