Instructions:
NOTE: You will need a pair of disposable gloves for this project.
- To learn how to use Crystal Clay 2-part epoxy clay and to make this ring, please watch the video: How to Use Crystal Clay.
-
Mix up a pea size amount of part A and a pea size amount of part B blue Crystal Clay (equal amounts) as seen in the video. Mix for 3 minutes until all striations are gone.
-
Pinch off a small bit of the clay you just mixed and flatten it with your fingers. Press into the base of your silver plated 21mm bezel ring. Place the Swarovski Crytsal 20mm cosmic ring in bermuda blue directly on top of the clay and press down.
-
Roll your remaining mixed clay from step 1 into a ball. Place that ball into the center of the cosmic ring. Press down slightly and smooth out gently with your finger.
-
Take your and place your Swarovski Crytsal chatons in jet directly into the clay ball you just placed. Press them into the clay so that the top edge of the crystal is just under the surface edge of the clay. I chose to place them in an orderly fashion by making a row of chatons nearest to the cosmic ring and then worked my way towards the center of the clay ball. However, you can place your chatons anyway you like.
-
Once all of your chatons are placed, lightly tap the surface of the chatons/clay with your finger to make sure all the stones are set.
-
Let cure in an upright position for 24 hours.
-
Enjoy your new ring!

Variations

When substituting in items, pay attention to sizes and styles to make sure all your pieces will fit together.
Tip: Check package quantities for each component. You may have extra material to make more than one finished project, or will have leftovers for other projects. In some cases, adding on just one more package of a component may be all you need to make multiple pieces.
