Can you imagine my surprise to find this video? Thanks for the shout out, Peter. I've been using the random small pieces some sellers make for jewelry makers. So I don't know how to put them into more refined shapes as you do. Thanks for the tips! I've got my safety glasses and my nippers and wheel cutters now, so all I need to do is watch you a couple more times...and away I'll go. I do appreciate the shout out you gave us at B'sue Boutiques. ;-) What a lovely gift!
Thankyou very much Brenda so glad you liked it, I love all the pieces you carry and you have many very small pieces that are wonderful to use in mixed media mosaic jewellery. I wanted to let everyone know that much of what you carry can be used in other forms of media such as mosaics and its a pleasure to use such good quality items that you carry. :)
Hello Peter, This is a great website, thanks for the info, also, I bought the exact same bezel and copied your Pendant. I am so happy with it and I have received lots of complements, that's when I tell them about Peter and Treasury Road. I wish there was some way I could send you a picture of it. I feel really chuffed. Thanks and keep your videos coming. Cheerio, Elizabeth
Thankyou so much Elizabeth and thankyou for your support and telling friends about Treasury Road. If you join Mosaics Australia Wide on Facebook I am in there a lot and you can post your photo there, I would love to see it. You can also tag me in there to make sure I see your post. Thanks again for your lovely comment. :)
Thankyou very much Cindy. I generally don't colour it, you can purchase AS in different colours. I have created a RU-vid video on colouring the AS, you can also check out the Aves Studio website for information on colouring the AS. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k7ORYnMjn8k.html
Thankyou so much. I used E6000 because adding AS would have raised the crockery more than I wanted it to be, E6000 can come in quite handy but I try and avoid using it unless I have to. You don't have to grout your pendants it depends on the design and look you are after, if you have gaps that you're wanting to fill grouting will help if the grout suits the piece, on one of my pendants I filled the grout lines in with AS because I wanted a neater finish but I always ensure my grout lines are narrow and not wide. If you fill the pendant with jewellery and there aren't any gaps where you can see the base or large gaps then you don't have to grout in that situation but if the piece is all crockery with grout lines then grouting would be a benefit as well but its a personal preference. :)
I would love to make stuff like this but can't get Apoxie Sculpt in Finland :( What would be an alternative to it for mosaic jewellery? There's E6000 I guess but I don't like to use it too much because of the toxicity of it :/
Thanks so much. There are other brands you can use in its place. Also you can buy it on Amazon this may be easier. I use E6000 but only when l have to and that is not often. Thanks for watching. 😊
