Absolutely love this, I was searching for ideas on using my rhinestones, and found this. I am not sure which piece was my favorite. Love!

This is a of great video. When you mentioned the names of your dragons, I decided you had to be a fan of the Outlander book series. You are very talented , thanks for the video.

Omg I really needed this right now, thank you Sandy! I recently made a bracelet with 3 14mm Swarovski rivoli crystals. I loved it so much I went & bought every package of them that I could find in AC Moore, Michael's & Hobby Lobby but then wasn't in the mood to make the same bracelet again & so i have had no idea what to do with them! But they're so beautiful I'm dying to use them. Thank you!

Also- would you consider maybe showing us the whole process on embedding the crystals into the clay, both the flat backs & rivolis? I have done it a bunch of times but I'm not very good at it. I'm always so worried that they will pop out & so I basically cover the majority of their sparkly goodness with a border of clay because I like to make sure that they're really stuck in there, but yours arent covered by clay at all & they look fantastic!

Oh, I just realized that you briefly went over how to do it. Sorry, I jumped the gun on that one!

@deannahodge809 5 жыл бұрын

Use liquid clay? That's what I would do.

You could use Apoxie Sculpt as it gets sticky and you don't put it in The oven.

Years ago I started collecting gemstones from jewelrytv. I don't know what I was thinking. I have several sets of 20-30 tiny gemstones, probably 2 or 3 mm in size. How do I use them in a pave' setting? If I glue them, they won't be shiny. I don't know how to get them to stick in polymer clay. Thanks for this video; it got my brain started.

@SandyHuntress 5 жыл бұрын

The blue pave earrings I made were done with epoxy clay. The clay itself is the glue, so once it hardens they will be on permanently. If you wanted to do something similar with polymer clay I'd suggest using heat set crystals.

Can we put the crystal along with the clay in the oven?

@SandyHuntress Жыл бұрын

As long as it's glass or crystal, not acrylic, it will be fine at polymer clay temps.

@jessicareyesaliaga Ай бұрын

Hi, great video. One question here, when you put the clay in the oven, nothing happens to the Crystals? And what about the metal. You put all together in the oven? They stick one with the other?

@SandyHuntress Ай бұрын

The oven is at such a low temperature that it does not affect the glass or metal. Glass melts at around 1500°F and metal at an even higher temp, so no worries about baking them at 275°F!

hi, did rhinestones falls? did you bake clay with rhinestones?

@SandyHuntress Жыл бұрын

Yes, you bake the clay with the rhinestones. As long as they are glass they will be fine.

@yushia2023 3 жыл бұрын

How easily can the rhinestones fall off the clay?

@SandyHuntress 3 жыл бұрын

If you use hot fix stones, they should not come off easily at all. If they are not hot fix they will pop right off. You can address this by either: 1) popping them off after baking and gluing back on with super glue, or 2) making sure they are embedded in the clay before you bake
