I made these years ago. For a bale I use a rubber tube from the hardware store, cut it in half & glued onto the back of the glass gem. It worked perfectly and doesn’t show.

@adaperez4770 7 жыл бұрын

Those are pretty. I cleaned my glass gems with alcohol, once it dried I applied a layer of mod podge, then I placed a photo of my fiance and I. then covered back in mod podge. they dry within an hour. then I glued a magnet on back. I made 200 for my upcoming wedding as a keepsake for my guests

@roxannetucker5813 7 жыл бұрын

If you haven't tried Modpoge yet, it would dry faster than the nail polish. Goes on milky like Elmers glue, but dries clear. As for those who made commens about being babyish for adult 50years, who cares ! You're making something cute & there are those of us who enjoy your video. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day!

This is my first video of yours and I love it. What a great idea. Really inexpensive too. Just a thought but you could cut out a felt circle to glue on the back to finish it. It would cover up the paper clip and be smoother on your skin too. Dont ya just hate when its rough on your skin an snagging your clothes all up. LOL Im joking with ya but I think it would work okay, Im sure someone else has already told u this though not a brilliant idea or anything. Thanks for sharing this craft Im gonna try it have to get the stones.

Wow! I like your style of doing videos, the project itself and finished products.Art isn't just technique and 1-2-3 instructions and highly edited videos. Art is a reflection of the person and the artist. Process counts, process includes fumbling about, talking to oneself and so forth... That's why some videos are long. Art takes time.

Darlene, you're so much fun with your tutorial. Great craft! You know, you can buy bails on some inexpensive bails on etsy. Also, if you prefer to keep what you have, use ( very carefully ) e6000. You can hold anything with that FOREVER! Lol. Get the thin tip cause it's a bit messy and you don't want to glue your fingers permanently cause we need more of your craft tutorials. It's great glue for jewelry.

Darlene, you are so personable and expressive! I made clear paperweights from liquid resin over 30 years ago. Used round pyrex custard baking cups, adding the imbedded items when nearly set up (or could poke items into the resin when slightly set up). I still have the one with shiny new pennies; also used a commemorative US postage stamp commemorating stamp collecting as a hobby. That one I think was the one I did the bottom of the paperweight with a complete layer of shiny BB shot pellets.

For the marbles with flaws, maybe try using nail polish with glitter or pieces of confetti in it, then put it on a dark background. Just a thought.

@kathyallen6238 6 жыл бұрын

Darlene, I loved your video! Your easy explanations and sense of humor made the time fly. I have been making these for years but NOT for jewelry. I am a dollhouse lover; these flatback marbles make great clocks (wrist watch pictures), large paperweights(any kind of picture using the small marbles), and pictures. Especially Disney-type pix for little girls! I usually cut out my pictures in a big-ish circle and glue it onto cardstock weight paper so they are all in one place (like on a small cooky sheet). Over the hot air register overnite to speed drying is good, too. I have only used Tacky glue so far, pressing down so I can see if the design is centered. I LOVE expensive dollhouse accessories; my retirement budget doesn't. I have been making dh accessories with lots of scrap craft ideas for 20+ years caz I don't think seniors or a kid with a $5 allowance in their hot little hand should be priced out of such a fun hobby!
