[60] Making Jewellery using acrylic fluid art - dip method

Hi all,
Making Jewellery using acrylic fluid art - dip method
Yes I know I spelt heat gun wrong in the video!

Materials
- Glass cabachons
- Pendant trays - pendants, earrings, bracelets, whatever you want
- Acrylic paint
- Silicone / dimethicone
- floetrol and/or pouring medium
- A substrate: e.g., yupo paper, baking paper, plastic, tarp
- Heat gun or torch
- cups
- Swipe tools if desired (e.g., paper towel, baking paper, card, pallette knife)
- Glue (I use E6000)
- Alcohol to clean up the paint off the front of the cabs if they are messy
- I have seen others using a pencil with blu tak on the end to pick up the glass cabs and dip into the paint, then stick the pencil into a floral foam. I did not do this as I did not know this method at the time. I just used my fingers.

Wow! I am just started making pendant and selling this week thank you for sharing this method as i can see much easy and less time to wait the paint to dry before cut and stick on it,

[vanessatouchard-rice]

Beautiful work!!! Thank you for this video!!! Now I can try and practice😉😊

H Mauzy, I love your work. I have just done my first pendant & earrings but haven't glued them in yet. I live in Perth and finding lovely trays appears impossible. Yours look lovely. Can you share where I can get different sizes, shapes with the cabochons please?

[roseannejohnson]

Thank you for quick reoly. I am excited about getting started. Currently i canr for a couple weeks so ive been really bad and been dangerously online shopping. Lol

[joyceparkes]

Lovely! I let the paint dry on the yupo before glueing down the cabs and cutting out when dry.. less mess😉

[ellencathrinejrgensen]

Beautiful creations 😍❤️👌 Are your trays silver or do they just look like it? I've not been able to find silver trays with cabochons and have had to resort to just using stainless steel and other 'cheap' metal pendants from Wish, which I'm not really that happy with 🤔

[roseannejohnson]

Love the jewellery...wondering about your suppliers, as not mentioned where you get bezels from. Thank you

[zenitude]

Hello, such a great work! You said you use Acrilyc or pourring medium. Could you gently share which proportion of each to prepare the final paint with the right consistency please? THANK YOU :)

[courtreanbbq]

thank you for this!! any way to add glitter?

[taraposton]

Hi, these are beautiful! Have you had any problems with using silicone in the paint when making jewelry? I ask because when using silicone when pouring canvas you have to clean it off once paint dries. And when doing jewelry you are unable to clean off. I have been wanting to use it with jewelry making was just scared to. Lol thank you for any feed back you can give. Have a great day.

Lovely! How long do you leave the paint to dry/ cure before gluing into the mounts?

[petrawinnubst]

Hoe lang moeten ze drogen? dank u wel voor de duidelijk uitleg

[deborahnarendorf]

Nice! Do you have to seal the paint once dried on the glass?

[manouchka]

Beautiful, where do you buy your cabochon ? I'm in Spain, thanks

[cmdonson]

Where do you get the variety of trays and cabs?

[terryrichardson]

I have just started trying to do these. After a while little silver spots show up. Could this be because the skin is to thin? Do you know how I can prevent the silver spots?

[helgamccallum]

Could you do this with acrylic inks on yupo?

[themoos]

where can you buy the cabochon for the one at 5:26 with 5 cabochon

[FeliciasJourney]

Could you share where you got your earring blanks please. I ordered some and they don’t look as nice as these. Also I love the bracelets too.

[forrestthroughdatrees]

I have made quite a few of these and think I’ve made some real cool ones. Just wondering if this is something you can sustain, as in a business selling these or do you sell a few at a time? Awesome stuff!
