      Thx my friend! I’m so ready to feel better! I get so down when I can’t do what I want to! It’s already getting so hot here & I can tell a big difference in the effects it’s having…I guess I’ll have to start shopping at night to avoid the sun! 🤣
      Have a splendid week! 💖💖💖

    These are beautiful, Karen. ❤ I need to get some of the tinned copper wire. I can tin it myself, but it's definitely not as clean and smooth as the pre-tinned you can buy.
    Hope you feel better soon, sweetie. Take care of you.✨🙏✨

      Thx I appreciate You! I’m definitely going to try again with the more clean edge! I couldn’t exactly remember how that was achieved! 🤣🤣🤣
      I’m having a treatment today so I’m hopeful it’ll do the trick to push my body out of this phase! I’m over it & ready to get back doing what I love!

    Thanks for the tips, they turned out beautiful. I am struggling with the decretive dots. Do you turn up the heat to create them or turn it down? I'm still working on rings. Love them.

    • @karensintuitivejewelry
      @karensintuitivejewelry  9 месяцев назад +1

      Thx very much! This isn’t Exactly the look I was going for 😂 but they still turned out pretty! I created those mini dots working at the same temperature as the entire piece! I’m still learning how to make dots but finally starting to see some improvement, it just takes practice! What works best for me is like a quick tap with the side of the tip & small amounts of solder! Keep practicing! I would attempt dots on Every piece just to practice but most of the time I’d melt them & move onto something I could do better until the dots just started getting more consistent so now I don’t melt them all! 🤣🤣🤪

    Isnt that stuff lead based?

      @karensintuitivejewelry  9 месяцев назад +1

      Lead-free solder & the wire is tinned copper. Absolutely no lead supplies involved
