Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

  1. To make this ring, please first watch the video: How to Use Crystal Clay.
  2. Next, the making of this entire ring is demonstrated in the video: How to Make a Vintage-Inspired Ring Using Crystal Clay, Bead Caps, and Chatons.
  3. If you prefer to not watch the video, below is a very brief overview of what to do to make this ring:
  4. Mix up a large pea size amount of Crystal Clay. Pinch off about a one third of the clay and roll the rest into a ball. Place the ball on the glue-on pad of your ring finding and flatten slightly so that it forms a dome shape.
  5. Place 12 or 13 bead caps into the clay (however many will fit), their narrow tapered end being inserted into the clay. See photo for placement.
  6. Now take your pinched off amount of clay and pinch little balls off of it. These should be about the size of a 2mm bead or approx the size of a large pin head (those yellow pins used for sewing). Place one of these little balls into the center of one of the bead caps on the ring and then use your magical pick to place an Austrian crystal crystal chaton into it. Repeat this with all of your bead caps and chatons.
  7. Let cure overnight.
