barbie stringers

unleash your inner 'barbie' by making a rubino oro encased aventurine stringer.

it's not too hard. punty up a little chunk of aventurine (goldstone) encase it all over with rubino oro then heat and pull it into a stringer. the trick is to never, never let the flame touch the goldstone or the sparkles will burn up - always work it outside the flame until it is encased.

they are so pink and full of sparkles!



here's one used to decorate the edges of a dark silver plum claw.
it's a princess goth girl kinda thing.
