Finally, I found mini screws at our local hobby shop. I was really so happy to see the sizes that I need. I have so much filigree that I can mix and match and put together with these screws instead of polymer clay. Here are some of the pieces I made using the filigrees and screws.

Seahorse Pendant Tutorial...
I've been designing lockets for years now. Sometimes I break a locket because of too much experimenting haha! But the broken ones are too precious for me to just throw in the bin. So I just kept them in my stash of recyclable materials. Now, I found a way to use them again. For this tutorial, I just used one half of the broken locket and I'm still thinking of another design for the other half. I treated it like a bezel and thought of pouring resin inside. So here's how I made the seahorse pendant..
You will be needing the following materials...
half of a broken locket (for this one I used a 2 inch oval locket)
Polymer clay (shades of blue, brown and green)
push mold (for this project I used a Lisa Pavelka border mold)
Lisa Pavelka Magic-Gloss
UV lamp (optional)
Pearl-ex pigment powder Gold
Seahorse Charm
Pasta machine

Hello 2013!!
I know it's going to be February soon and it's only now that I had the drive to write something in my blog..tsk tsk tsk. What a way to start 2013 right? haha But one of my resolutions is to update my blog more often! I plan to share more free tutorials and details about my projects here rather than on Facebook alone. I promise you that! :)
So what have I been up to for the past weeks? Let the pictures do the talking..
