DTIntermart: LOL Beth, thatis too funny.... Is his middle name Polymer? marlea_anderson: of course missy, lol dragonladyw2001: Bead weaving, watercolors. DTIntermart: LOL Rossija: I do some quilting, a little knitting... marlea_anderson: just about anything once just to see if i can do it dragonladyw2001: No, just plain old Stephen. donna_stamps: Lots of stamping, crocheting, plastic canvas, beading, watercolor, leather, etc etc donna_stamps: still want to learn to tat Rossija: Want to try making my own cards. dragonladyw2001: I'd like to learn that, too. dragonladyw2001: Tatting. marlea_anderson: I can needle tat Donna dragonladyw2001: I've tried and just can't do anything but get frustrated. miss_meme_30: i do beading, cross stitch, just about anything i like i will try to make it myself DTIntermart: I'm trying to learn wire wrap, I also make jewlery... marlea_anderson: I have some books marlea_anderson: can send instructions dragonladyw2001: I've seen some really pretty pendants with wire wraps. donna_stamps: On needle tatting, Marlea miss_meme_30: i want to tat.... marlea_anderson: yes miss_meme_30: never done it DTIntermart: Wire wrap is Hard too. donna_stamps: I"ve seen it at Annie's Attic but haven't gotten a book yet marlea_anderson: I've never tried wire wrapping, sounds neat dragonladyw2001: I can imagine. Do you do any work harding with the wire before using it? dragonladyw2001: hardening. marlea_anderson: I bought a tatting shuttle...shuttle tatting is next. lol dragonladyw2001: Can't type for anything tonight. DTIntermart: it is fun but frustrating some times... miss_meme_30: i got some of the pearl ex today at ACMoore with my 1/2 off coupon DTIntermart: I'm trying to figure out how to do that BETH, dragonladyw2001: Oooo, you're goign to have some fun with the Pearl Ex. DTIntermart: Pearlex is great! dragonladyw2001: To work harden the wire, just get a small chasing hammer and a block anvil. miss_meme_30: might go back and get the other colors tomorrow donna_stamps: I've used pearlex with stamping but not with clay yet Fearless Leader: What I'm going to do is make a tiger chop sandwich with the malachite chop, then form the loaf that we will cut rectangles out of for the layered beads. So the ends of the beads will be malachite and the center tiger, ok? Fearless Leader:Biz-Archive/Chop/Natasha/CloseUp- 3Layer.htm dragonladyw2001: Probably some needle nose pliers to hold the wire while you gently hammer it. It helps lock in the curves and make them stronger. Phyl: sounds neat NJ marlea_anderson: wow- sounds cool dragonladyw2001: I'm watchin'! miss_meme_30: can u use the pearl-ex when doing the mg stuff? marlea_anderson: the ones at the link are pretty dragonladyw2001: mg? DTIntermart: Doesn't hamering mar the wire? marlea_anderson: mokune gami...I can't spell it dragonladyw2001: Not if you use a chasing hammer. They usually have a ball peen on the other end. And you don't really pound the wire. Just kind of tap it carefull. dragonladyw2001: Yes, you can use the Pearl ex with MG. DTIntermart: Oh would a rawhide hammer work too? miss_meme_30: i was tryin to find out how to spell it too marlea....lol Rossija: mokume gane bernie (babasbunja) joined the room donna_stamps: rawhide hammer to soft for wirework dragonladyw2001: Maybe. Might have to be a little heavier with it. But there would be less risk of leaving dents.

You don't have to hammer so hard that the wire is flattened. bernie: very nice nj dragonladyw2001: Nice beads. DTIntermart: the hardest thing i find is making tigt wraps without distorting the wire... Rossija: Brought my 'puter to show dad some genealogical stuff I'd been doing. bernie: did i miss the across the miles online happy dance? donna_stamps: Love the colors of the malachite and tigereye together - beautiful marlea_anderson: ohhhhh, ancestry..... DTIntermart: I'll TRY IT... Phyl: what gauge wire are you using doug? dragonladyw2001: I don't think I can help you there.

Fearless Leader: There, layered beads Phyl: lol all of the above dragonladyw2001: It should work with any of the gauges. dragonladyw2001: I like the layered effect.

We can make it into a vase. dragonladyw2001: Just FYI at the Big Lots near me, they had little kid's painting kits that had two small porcelain masks for a dollar. I haven't had a chance to experiment with them, but they look as if they would take polymer clay pretty well. DTIntermart: NJ can ypu make one moore, i think I missed a step... bernie: trying to cut back on number of decorations, but it is hard, love all the pretty stuff for x-mas DTIntermart: You Rossija: Me too. And so does my kitty Phyl: lol that is why I don't have a tree in my house bernie: i wire so many things, and my cat loves to play with the wire donna_stamps: Why cut back on decorations? They're best part of Christmas Rossija: I've got a 2 ft. tree that is on top of the entertainment center. Phyl: I have to put mine outside on the patio Phyl: I have seven furbabies sharonvintn: We just put up a small table top tree dragonladyw2001: I have a friend who has cats. Her solution to the tree dilemma is to only put the front half of her tree together and then anchor it flat against the wall. Fearless Leader: a vase with four mirror images on it. sharonvintn: Too many dogs, birds cats and other critters to put one on the floor Phyl: very neat vase wow Rossija: Seven? Mine's an only-cat for the time being. I'm thinking about adopting a second. donna_stamps: love the vase NJ dragonladyw2001: Nice vase.
