Recently I've been on a purging my house mission and I've been going through things and from time to time I find little treasures. I found a single earring that was my mother's earring back in the 90's. I remember borrowing these heart shaped brass earrings a lot, they were one of my favorite pairs to borrow.
Not sure what happened to the other one so I decided to mold it to make my own spin on them. I also found a really pretty rose button in my Mom's stash that would be a great embellishment for art or other things. This is a simple project with a lot of WOW. They may look a bit outdated when put together but that doesn't stop me from wearing them. People will ask if they're heavy and you can tell them NO!
Both items have great texture to them so they were perfect for this project.
First things first... I created two molds using Amazing Mold Putty.
THIS STUFF IS DA BOMB!!
Items I used for this project are:
- my molds made from the Amazing Mold Putty
- Amazing Casting Resin see how to mix {here}.
- Alumidust powders - colors used are: pewter, bright blue, deep purple, deep red
- Alumilite Metallic Powder in silver
- paint brush
- jump rings
- earring post backs
- tacky glue
- a little StazOn ink
- pen to mark where to drill
- oh and my trusty drill press!
Color version - this one I edged with teal StazOn ink.
This one is purely silver with black and copper jump rings.
So which is your favorite?
