Julie Bean did a great video on Beadaholique showing how to apply resin to objects with uneven backs. Learn how to make a quick and easy flat surface and how to use the button itself as a template for trimming out your image. How cool is that?! Beadaholique.com: How to Apply Resin to Objects with […]
Let us take you there!
Bring on the Color! It seems like adding color to metal is all the rage! Between mica powders, Swellegants, and enamels the possibilities are endless. I have been playing with a new line of colorants for the Nunn Design Resin. Once the two-part resin is mixed, you add a very small amount of colorant to […]
Junkin’ season is upon us! Oh, how I await the end of gray winter days drooling over Etsy finds in hope that I will score one of my own treasures in the months ahead. But sometimes it just isn’t possible to find what I’m looking for garage sale-ing and I purchase them retail. Did you […]
Sometimes it is the simplest of projects that bring us the most joy. Just looking at what Carmi, from Resin Craft, has created with the new Nunn Design Button Shanks just makes me smile!

Had a great class with Thomas Mann yesterday! It was a small class, so there was a lot of individual attention. Sarah, the woman taking the photo, was kind enough to work with me most of the day (trust me, I needed extra care!). We made a sampler of different types of cold connection techniques. […]
2013 Innovation Team Member Lorelei Eurto created a great pair of earrings that are featured today on Jewelry Making Daily. Lorelei likes to incorporate fibers and textiles into her work. I love how this adds a pop of color with very little effort. Download a step-by-step tutorial of Lorelei’s great project and prepare to raid […]
Bead Caps Aren’t Just For Beads Bead caps are part of my design staple. I can never seem to have enough bead caps or jump rings (well, actually, I have a warehouse full, so maybe that isn’t so true). But I seem to be reaching for them more and more to stack together, add as […]
2013 Innovation Team members Karen McGovern and Stephanie Gard Buss each have a project featured in the Summer Issue of Belle Amoire Jewelry. Great job to both of you!
I am eager to meet Lorri and Lori this fall at Art Camp For Woman. The more I know about them, the more I know that these two women are members of my tribe. They are so very committed to their passion and a mission that is close to mine, to inspire and nurture creativity. […]
