DIY: Emerald Crystal Ring

-
EN

I have finally got my crafting mojo back on with my Fimo clay! They were kind of stored away in my drawers and, yeah neglected.
I guess I lost a bit of interest in them since I started to focus a lot more on crochet/knitting.

But they are back! And back in a new, short, always easy DIY of mine called: raw crystal rings, specifically emerald ring made with Fimo clay!

Raw crystal jewelry are beautiful and very loved by many of us ladies but yeah they can be quite pricey. So that’s why I came up with this DIY! A lovely (fake) emerald one c: Make your own!
I hope you’ll try it out!

Ik heb eindelijk weer mijn roeping gevonden met Fimo klei! Ze waren heel lang opgeborgen in mijn la en, ja ik heb ze verwaarloosd.
Ik verloor interesse in ze nadat ik veel meer ging richten op mijn haak/brei werkjes.   

Maar Fimo klei is back in town! En terug in een nieuwe, korte, altijd gemakkelijk DIY van mij: ruwe kristallen ringen, maar dan gemaakt van Fimo klei!

Ruwe kristallen sieraden zijn mooi en zeer geliefd bij velen van ons dames, maar ja, ze kunnen vrij prijzig zijn. Dus dat is de reden waarom ik met deze DIY op te proppen kom! Gewoon lekker zelf maken, deze smaragd ring c:
Ik hoop dat je het uitprobeer!

You'll need: any desired colored clay, a blank ring, Fimo liquid deco gel/translucent liquid sculpey (TLS), knife, oven
Lots of chopping! My tip: just Google some pictures for examples c:


 Done! 


Da Steps:
  1. Squeeze some Fimo liquid on top of the blank ring. This will work as glue c: 
  2. Form a ball first and start cutting the ball in halfs. Set aside the other half and with the 2nd half you basically start of chopping/slicing edges.
  3. Once you have all these edgy chopped up shapes, you press them all together. Don't press it too hard or you'll lose those edges that we want!
  4. Then you place it on top of the glued blank ring and pop in the pre-heated oven 110° C for 30 minutes!

EN It’s holidays and Liberation Days in The Netherlands and with all these delicious day offs, I’ve finally got more time to do my yarn works. And yes sleeping in late is also great. But mostly I’ve been really productive with my yarn works, whereas the most recent ones - the puff pastry/Danish I have received a fair amount of likes and sweet comments on my social media. Thank you! Being productive means also I take effort and time in perfecting my yarn works but not too hard to make luckily! Especially the snail rolls (cinnamon rolls/pain aux raisin) are really easy and fun to make. And because sharing is caring, I’m sharing you my little secret of making these crochet cinnamon rolls!    NL Heerlijk de meivakantie met al die vrije dagen kan ik lekker ongestoord op mijn haak werkjes storten.
