I was thinking of making a whole bunch with similar colors then drilling wholes in them to make a necklace, but I'm still not sure--I'll think of something.
Below are some pictures of the molds I made of the new rings:
(yeah the photos are really ugly, but the rings will come out pretty! Well I hope so...)
Okay the photo above looks REALLY ugly, but the shape of the rings will be sanded out so they will be better looking. When I made this the clay wouldn't shape right, so I did the best I could and decided to leave it to the sanding. The ring is just a flat cutout of that shape, it's kind of hard to explain so when it's cast in resin i'll show you more.
The final photo: MY personal favorite, the Saturday ring. Yeah, so what, it's a weird name. But it's cool.
It's kinda chunky, but I still love it! It's squarish shaped, so it will be SO much easier to sand and smooth out. These rings will be quickies. I have a lot of ideas for this ring--not only dying the resin so it's a solid color, but also maybe putting things inside clear resin so the ring will have a cool effect. I don't know. I'll experiment some more later.
I love Saturdays.
I hope you guys liked the rings! I went to a japanese garden today downtown, and got some really pretty pictures--of the garden and my rings! The plants went nicely with the colors and shapes. I'll post them up later today, so you can see them.
I made a new bubble ring today: the Lime Bubble ring. It's pretty cool, it just needs some sanding and ta-DA it's done. Another really cool thing: I think I just might know how to make yellow resin! It might not be transparent though, only solid. But I promise someday I'll figure it out. I promise you.
Well I'm running late for a class I have, so I guess I'll see you guys later! (goodness this is a long post...)
