PROJECT R627

  1. Take your finger and apply a VERY light coat of Iris Blue GIlders Paste over the top of your lucite dragonfly cabochon. Just barely touch the raised surface of the white design. If you are not familiar with how to apply Gilders Paste, please view the video here.
  2. Let the Gilders Paste dry for 30 minutes and then spray a light coat of clear acrylic matte spray sealant over the design. Let this coat dry and then spray another 2 coats. Let all these coats fully dry.

  4. All done! Enjoy your pretty new ring.
