I love that I can "grow" rust on just about anything. I also picked up a propane torch so I will be experimenting and switching from butane to propane. Propane is readily avilable here but I can't find butane anywhere. :( <br /><br />Pattie ;)<br />Mazatlan Mx.The Joy of Nestinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16555028211041954641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-29026466360436789312010-01-08T18:37:55.383-05:002010-01-08T18:37:55.383-05:00I would like to try resin filled bezels, oxidizing...I would like to try resin filled bezels, oxidizing with Liver of sulfer & also try some rubber stamping on polymer clay.Mel Melnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-60685559681623264302010-01-06T03:15:46.796-05:002010-01-06T03:15:46.796-05:00Just love your metal work.

I have learned how to make birthstone rings that run between 20-25 dollars a ring depending on if I wrap all the way around or just the bottom of the shank. As I said I am just learning how to do this and hope to become proficent by the time my first show for the new year in April. Wish me luck.Valerie C.

So I think I've settled on trying my hand at working with wire and sheet metal, and then moving on to resin later in the year.

I did try a little glass fusing when I was in college, but it was all self~led w/ a book as my guide. I would love to have an actual teacher right there to answer questions. Altered books & small shrines are on my 'to~do' list as well. So many new things to try.....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16479492932349522521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-25249468897154366572010-01-02T23:57:25.625-05:002010-01-02T23:57:25.625-05:00I love the pieces you made.

Working with stone, which I love, it just seems natural for it to be joined with metal. <br /><br />I work with some wire now and hopefully I will graduate to sheet metal and cold connections. From there I expect to learn fusing and other torch work and even casting. <br /><br />I promised myself that I would learn at least one new technigue each 2-3 months this year. As with any New Years resolution it will be sticking to it and not letting other things get in the way.<br /><br />Paula LeePaula Lee M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-799165040591013322010-01-02T22:56:46.990-05:002010-01-02T22:56:46.990-05:00I think it would be great fun to cast pewter beads...I think it would be great fun to cast pewter beads and charms, but that is way over my head!
