- To learn how to use Crystal Clay 2-part epoxy clay and to make this ring, please watch the video: How to Use Crystal Clay.
- Mix up a pea size amount of part A and a pea size amount of part B blue Crystal Clay (equal amounts) as seen in the video. Mix for 3 minutes until all striations are gone.
- Pinch off a small bit of the clay you just mixed and flatten it with your fingers. Press into the base of your silver plated 21mm bezel ring. Place the Austrian crystal Crytsal 20mm cosmic ring in bermuda blue directly on top of the clay and press down.
- Roll your remaining mixed clay from step 1 into a ball. Place that ball into the center of the cosmic ring. Press down slightly and smooth out gently with your finger.
- Take your Magic Pick and place your Austrian crystal Crytsal chatons in jet directly into the clay ball you just placed. Press them into the clay so that the top edge of the crystal is just under the surface edge of the clay. I chose to place them in an orderly fashion by making a row of chatons nearest to the cosmic ring and then worked my way towards the center of the clay ball. However, you can place your chatons anyway you like.
- Once all of your chatons are placed, lightly tap the surface of the chatons/clay with your finger to make sure all the stones are set.
- Let cure in an upright position for 24 hours.
- Enjoy your new ring!
