W00t! A tute! Distressed Victorian Lace recycled jewellery pendant

It's about time I shared a tutorial with you. I have a couple of other ones I hope to post relatively soon too...You will need:Clear Polyester GelcoatPlastic spoon (optional)Plastic cupMixing stickMould release sprayHot pink Pearl Ex powderLisa Pavelka “Romance” Texture stampBand Saw or Junior HacksawBlack pigment inkpadDrillAcrylic spray9mm jump ringRecycled jewellery chainRecycled flower dangly earringSuppliers:Pearl Ex powder and Lisa Pavelka stamp from the Polymer Clay Pit: www.polymerclaypit.co.uk1) Prep the texture stamp with mould release spray and leave to dry. Spoon about 4 level teaspoons of polyester gelcoat into a plastic cup and add catalyst as directed.2) Stir well until it is a beige colour instead of pink and sprinkle in some pink pearl ex powder. Use the stick to mix this in thoroughly to give a pearlised effect.3) Pour the gelcoat onto the rubber stamp and then level out with the spoon. Leave to set for about an hour- gelcoat sets much faster than normal resin!4) Pull the rubber carefully away from the resin piece.5) Cut a rectangle out of the resin sheet. I used a band saw, but you can also use a junior hacksaw if you don’t have one.6) Apply the ink to the texture on the resin thoroughly and leave to dry for a few minutes before sealing with an acrylic spray.7) Drill a hole through the top of the piece. Take some old chain from some retro costume jewellery and attach each end to the pendant through a 9mm jump ring. The chain should be long enough that it doesn’t need a clasp. Next, take the earwire off an old costume earring and hand the charm in front of the resin piece. Close the jump ring.Enjoy!
