This new pendant features flowers that I painted myself.
Whenever I work with Apoxie Sculpt there are leftovers. I usually put them into a mold which is why I had a few blue flowers on my studio table. With acrylic paint I can make these flowers any colour I like.
I brushed silver paint onto the flower surface. This changed them to a softer pastel palette that I preferred.
I added some extra gold paint and some pink to make two of the flowers purple. My next step was to decide where to use the flowers. I really like the Round Silver Plated Interchangeable bezels. You can use them as a bracelet or as a pendant. I also made up a fresh ball of pink Apoxie Sculpt to fill the bezel so these flowers could be added.
The top four flowers cured in the resin base and then I added one flower as a dangle. Isn’t that a great use of left over supplies?
These are so cute, and that slightly metallic paint makes sops them looking childish, if you know what I mean? Nice design – the dangle really works =)
