24. Using Etching Stickers with Mica, Flexiglass, Glue or Enamel to Create Awesome Dichroic Pendants

!!!ALWAYS USE A MASK WHEN WORKING WITH MICA AND ENAMEL!!!

Following on from my last video which showed how to etch without etching cream using etching stickers. This video shows other techniques for using your etching (or craft stickers) to create some beautiful pendants. I combine mica powder with various mediums and I also use enamel to accomplish this. There are various options depending on what you already have in your studio so you dont necessarily have to go and buy additional products.

So easy to do. Hope you enjoy and if so please like, subscribe and share.
NOTE: at time frame I say that I full fused the pendant. I didnt. I fire polished it!

You can buy the pots I refer to in the video at the following link:
