Beginning to Dabble with Enamels!

So excited to finally get the courage to begin playing with enamels at home! I have had a fear of torches, and I am slowly getting more comfortable with them. This will definitely open up many more options for me in jewelry making!


 This is my set up. I have already done a couple of pieces. You can see the current color I am working on...enamel residue left on the paper on the tray. You can also see the piece sitting on the trivet waiting to be fired. I have to wear a mask and protective glasses when I do this.



This is a close up of the piece on the trivet.



These are the 1st 2 pieces that I completed.



These are actually swatch pieces for the colors that I currently have in stock.
On one of the pieces at the bottom, I've combined 3 colors...
pink, purple and blue.
