Ring a Bling Blingby: Dwyn Tomlinson
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that bling ... .
Surely I must have used that before somewhere!
Our new ring bases are just beautiful - with the heft of fine jewelry. We bought some big sizes too - so you could even design a signet-style ring for your dude. Probably with less Swarovski's than this though!
Because these are made to be quite random (except for the one with the single rivoli) - take the component list as a starting point - rather than a definitive list.
The basic idea is to use the two-part epoxy clay, make a ball, flatten it slightly onto the top of the ring base, and then stick on the stones, and let it cure.
Tips
Enjoy!
