I just started following you and absolutely enjoy your videos. I've been doing mosaics for a few years and have always admired jewelry made from delicate china, so thought I'd give it a try! Will continue to follow you for instruction and advice. Hope you are having a great day!!!

Karen can you use the same method on stain glass?? I just love every one of your videos. I save all of them so I can go back and look at. Thank you Karen for all your help..💜💕🙏🏼❤️💕

Do you mean using the rotary tool for cutting glass? Yes but glass reacts slightly differently in that it can splinter more causing the possibility of getting little glass splinters in your hands & possibly cutting you skin if the shards strike you so be EXTRA cautious & use gloves & a face shield! Test the piece to see how it’ll reaction & then proceed with caution! Nippers & hand tools are probably best to use with stain glass honestly! Thank you so much for your sweet comments! I love that you are getting so much out of my tutorials! 🙏😊💙🩵💖❤️💜

You know, I told you that I went to the resale shops, and found some really beautiful pieces of China. And my friend literally freaked out on me when she found out I was breaking them to make Jewelry. lol 😂 I only have one piece left that I made and it was a heart It doesn’t look anything I like the way yours do… But I work with Seaglass a lot and I make sure my face is protected and I do wear some Latex gloves. Because that glass slings around and I was finding pieces of glass embedded into my skin. Anyway, I have to finish watching your video , hugs 🤗, Michelle

Yes I remember you telling me this story! I agree seaglass or glass in general fractures a lot differently than china! I’ve also worked with seaglass & even depression glass as my youngest son is a collector for his eBay store! Fortunately I’ve never had any problems with flying bits & pieces because of the way the rotary works everything flies far off to the left but I do wear glasses! I need to get a pair of good all purpose well fitting gloves tho! I just haven’t found any I like! Do you use a rotary tool or something else? Thx for your comments! 🙏😊💖

Oh my gosh, regarding the gift from sister in law, I thought you put the pieces in where the water and lubricant went. lol. I was thinking rock tumbler. 😂 I bet you didn’t feel your hands getting hurt because the vibration from the machine numbed them. ❤

There is tool GRINDER MATE, That holds the glass so you won't blister your fingers. Tried to post a pic but couldn't.

Thx for the tip! Great product, I just wish it wasn’t so pricey! Until I have 💰 to spare I’ll just be more careful & maybe not do 12 pieces at once! 🤣🤣🤣 I appreciate your support! 🙏😊💖

Fun video to watch. How did your lil finger protectors work? Did they help? I've found that if I have high pressure points like that when I'm working, either just wrapping my fingers with painters tape, or even coban ( if you've got it )works well, and usually stays in place. Be fun to see what you do with all your pieces.😊💖👍

@karensintuitivejewelry 4 ай бұрын

Thx gf. The protectors did the job! I only wish I had put them on when I first started feeling irritation 🤣🤣🤣 I also had painters tape & vet wrap that I remember thinking about but then….well you know…🤣 I’ll be back at Part 2 later today! Thx for your continued support! I appreciate you! 🙏😊💖

@@karensintuitivejewelry Awesome, looking forward to your video.😁 Also good to know the finger protectors worked. Lol,.... I know, right?! You get into a project n just keep doing it. Then later you're cussing yourself out for either not paying attention, or just not listening to yourself. 🤷🏻‍♀️😅😂 The glass n tile grinder looks like a fun tool. I know someone that has one as well and they love it. I think I'll have to use my glass n tile nippers, and Dremel to get the job done for now. Looking forward to seeing how you finish all the pieces.👍💖

Hey gf… Your poor fingers!!! Hope they are getting better…I burnt my finger on a cup handle, taking it out of the microwave after making Quincey hot chocolate…I’m a dummy🤪. I had a blister immediately…it popped and blistered again… won’t be doing that again🤬. Can’t wait for the next video!!! 🧡 & XXX’s
