Thanks Gina! Between you and Erika, I think I need two Starry Night boxes and a four day weekend 🙂. I’ll be making this as a Christmas present for a good friend.
Hello Gina, Sorry I have not been around. I have been taking a brake from beading for a while. The burn out got to be too much. That is a GORGEOUS piece. You just got me in the mood again. I can count on you to give me the inspiration when I am down. I am excited to do this piece. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this amazing design, Gina! This pendant is a keeper. You created a very special, charming piece to be added to a Starry Night jewelry box. I love it.
Super cool design! I choose my projects primarily so that I can learn new techniques and/or beads. It's a bonus if the end result is absolutely gorgeous, too! You have really done an amazing job using the beads that came in the subscription box, and I learned a lot. Love my pendant, too! I did insert my cabochon before working the second half of the bezel, because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get it otherwise, and that worked out for me.
Gina, your pendant is so amazing, and a very worthy addition to the Starry Night 🌃 constellation!✨ Adore those cabochons, but they are beyond my beading $$ budget. 🐀🐁🐀 (Rats! 😄) You may have inspired me to have a go at making resin cabs instead. 😀Edit: WWIT??? 🤷🤦🙄 Resin and severe asthma don't play well together...🐀🐁🐀 again. 🤔 On to plans B, C, etc. (embellish clear glass or acrylic cabs, try ceramics class, polymer clay (like Tussah) ✨💡😀
@@tussah8874 👍Your idea sounds much better and far more 🫁 friendly than resin. Plus, with clay you can make practically any custom size & shape pieces you want or can imagine. Bet your pieces are amazing!! I also thought about playing with clear glass or acrylic cabs, or (later) looking into local ceramics classes or facilities such as the high school arts dept. (Yeah... Hubby Normal would just "love" for me to take up yet another hobby we can barely afford, and it'd look weird to classmates if I made nothing but shiny little discs, ovals, ❤️ & polygons LOL) 😂
@@abbynormal4740 I know what you mean about needing new hobbies, lol! The ceramic cabochons are a cool idea if you have access to a place with a kiln. Otherwise, pick up a block of polymer clay and give it a try. My daughter and I did that last Mother's Day and made me a bunch of oval shaped cabochons. We decorated them with metallic mica powder before baking and they came out very cool looking. We finished with a coat of UV resin. If you want less lumpy shapes, they sell little silicone molds or you can use small cookie/candy cutters. I used a moon face mold for a cabochon recently, and after baking, covered it with "fake" gold leaf and a little acrylic paint. I bezeled it with gold beads and it's a cool looking pendant.
@@ORCHIDandOPAL i tried doing it but my cage ended up floppy so I took it apart lol I may retry. I was so frustrated by the end I just didn't even want to do it

I've been experimenting making cabochons out of polymer clay and that's works out well, too.

Hi Gina, would this work with a 22” round? Love your designs! Thank you! Hugs!
Hi Linda! It probably would! You would just have some extra space at the "points." 💜💜💜
Is there a way to edit this design for stones of a different shape? I believe mine is octagonal
Hi Jessica! Something similar could be done with an octagon, it would just take some trial and error. 💜💜💜

Do you write companion instructions to go with this?
Hi Nancy! I do, I just don't have one for this piece quite yet. 💜💜💜
