Yay!! This is brilliant! Leave it overnight to dry or pop them in an oven at 150C / 300F for 10 minutes. They might need a little longer if they’re bigger. Please share your creations when you have finished! I’d love to see! 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you for your lovely comment! I have a selection of different sized blocks but they’re mostly about 0.5mm-1cm thick. Here’s a link to the one I recommend to buy if it’s at all useful: www.cognacjewelleryschool.com/jewellers-journal/get-started-with-silver-clay-8-tool-essentials (5th product down)
Amazing art. Thank you for sharing with us :-) for the solder part: are the circle part in silver 999? Could be made with suppliers made of silver 925? Thanks 🌸
If you don’t mind could you tell me a little more about how you add the hoop to the finished pendant? I have regular solder that’s used for say soldering circuits, but I doubt that’s the same metal used for this. What kind of material is the solder used to attach the hoop and where could I get it? 🫶🫶
Of course not! They’re soldered with hard silver solder and a small handheld blowtorch. Down in the description you should find links to tools and materials lists. There are shoppable buttons there for all the materials and tools I used for this project so you can find the right product. There is also a step-by-step online course if you’re interested too 😊 Let me know if you have any questions at all, Jessica
You have a good vibe. Subscribing! Also how does one solder that hook thing and what’s a pickle? What’s the hook thing made of? Where do you get it from?
Thank you so much! I’m just putting together a step-by-step for this workshop with videos explaining all of these things - can I let you know when it’s ready? In the meantime if you check out the tools & materials list in the description you can find the jump rings and all the other tools used (including the pickle 🥒)
I’d be waiting for this step-by-step workshop. Pls include sourcing/ creating every little part of the process even if it seems like common sense. For example, soldering might be common sense to an engineer or some electronics person but it would be great if you included that! Love and energies to you and your family💛
Hello! How lovely - not far at all! Yes, I have a physical school and offer courses. If you send me a quick email to hello@cognacjewelleryschool.com to say hello I can send you all the info from there. Bonne soirée, Jessica
It’s an acid solution used to clean oxidisation and flux from metal after soldering - here’s a short about it: What IS jewellers pickle? #learnsomethingnew #enjoytheprocess #jewelrytutorial ruclips.net/user/shortsG8xmWXpRPdI?feature=share
for the fellow uninitiated, pickling is a warm acid bath that removes oxidation and residual flux G8xmWXpRPdI in the search bar will show you her excellent pickling short. fun fact, every 10°C increase in temperature doubles the reaction rate. ty freshman chemistry! 😋
Skipping over to Amazon to find mold compound and silver clay! Thank you! ❤❤
Fantastic!! Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions! 🌸💫
@Cognac_Jewellery_School that's very kind of you. thank you ma'am 😊

Got my clay and made many moulds!! Whoo hoo!! How long do you leave it to dry? Can I put it in the oven and if so for how long and at what temp?

Can you do this with brass ?
Thank you for such an informative video, it has inspired me to try this, I just wondered what the size and thickness of the perspex you are using is?

@@Cognac_Jewellery_School Thank you, that's really helpful
Beautiful! What is the two-part moulding paste called? Epoxi? Silicone? Many thanks!
Thank you so much! It’s a two-part silicone compound called Siligum (there is a tools and materials link in the description if you want to find it)
Amazing art. Thank you for sharing with us :-) for the solder part: are the circle part in silver 999? Could be made with suppliers made of silver 925?

You’re most welcome! The jump rings are 925 and can be bought ready made 🙂
Is it possible to paint silver or to mix it with other mediums?

Can you sand the front? Where the design is to polish them?!❤
You can polish the front by hand or with a polishing motor, just be careful not to polish away the details in your design 💫
😊👌💐

You may have moulded a dandelion, but you ended up with a silver nipple, didn't you?
