Loved this Thelma! Don't know how many times I junked nice pieces because of discolored ware. I have had these pens for art. Never thought I could have spared some cool stuff.
I also use Sally Hanson nail polish - have about 50 colors and chromes. Only polish where smell is gone in a few days, and once painted on will not come off. Marvelous for any color items. So glad to see someone else does touch ups. I will be getting those metal paint markers right away. Will join your sites. I nneed all the help I can get. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to post this video Thelma. It made me realise that I could try and use Rub & Buff to restore a lovely watch that my (now ex) husband bought me in 1991. The gold has worn on the outer surface of the band yet the underside which was in constant contact with my skin is perfect. I'm wondering if it was due to a suede jacket I used to wear a lot back then and the drycleaning chemicals from it rubbing on the watch. Jewellers have refused to help and if Citizen (the manufacturer) would do it I'm sure it would cost a fortune. I'm nearly 70 and would like to wear it again so I'm giving it a try. Thanks for the inspiration xx
Oh may! How clever you are. Thank you so much for answer me with all you do I was sure I was sure I was not going to hear from you. I'm an 80 year old grandma with lot of jewelry to pass on, your vedeo will help me to make my old pieces come back to life...something I wish I could!. God Bless the work you do for a very long time.

Cecilia, my grandma passed on her jewelry to all of us granddaughters. She left a note with a little bit of the history on each piece. Some of the notes said things like "Bought in France with your Gramps. He griped about the price but I got it anyway". "Wore these to the Grammy's in 1980." "Found in a pawn shop in Vegas and wore this during the birth of my 2nd child." "Found this Chanel at a flea market in Texas for $2 bucks!" Or one of my faves: "Not worth much, but I wore it to all of your Mom's baby showers". It made each piece so much special to know all of these details, even if it wasn't a typically "valuable" piece to someone else! Just an idea! ❤
@@nikkiflippy007 Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic edea!!!! How much more value those notes will add to the piece. Happy Easter to you. Cecilia
Hello 👋🏽😊 Watching this video on 03/2023. Thanks for such an informative video on how to restore jewelry. I had been looking for a way to save some of my jewelry pieces. Thanks again!! 💞😘
I had one earring in my single earrings lot and another in my scrap silver pile, so thanks for the info on how some southwest earring will have just one hallmarked...now i have reunited a wonderful pair! Thanks, this is the kind of knowledge that is so helpful. (from another video I guess)
Hi Thelma. I enjoyed watching this type of show very interesting and knowing that we can save from junking some of our cute jewelry pieces is very cool ! TFS !
Thank you for doing this vid. I’ve been looking for a couple of years to find something to do to fix my vintage jewelry. Now I can start buying vintage jewelry that is worn and now I know I can fix😍
Wasn’t blob jewelry in in the seventies?!! Not a whole lot of good style happened in the seventies! Arrrgh! Harvest, avocado green and brown, not my taste! I love jewele tones
I've got some things that I will do this with. Thanks for the information and tutorial. I also don't mind the base copper showing on certain items but sometimes a piece calls for brightness. That Betsy Johnson turned out great!
I'm so glad you posted this. I just got the Krylon ones. Haven't tried gold yet but the silver was too matte for the piece i was working on. Im going to try those. THANKS
If it doesn't dry too fast I would dab some on a flat surface and mix a couple tones together to get closer to actual color. I think it would look better.
Have you tried seeing how well it’s really applying? Like rubbing water on, does it start coming off? If it does come off what I think you could add is a top coat to seal the marker. I thought about dumping a bunch of matching pieces in a gold or silver plating tank.
Hey thank you for the pen touch up idea I bought a grey sharpie paint pen it’s seems to be doing the job now do you have to keep touch ups?? I realized I wasn’t using enough paint lol I didn’t pump enough!!
Hi. LOVED your training video! You cover so much in your video! I need some help. I would like to know the name of the painting pens you use. I need to touch up some of my pins where the gold or silver tone overlay has rubbed off from age and use. I have never done this before and some of the pins are 60+ old. Thank you. Yvonne MW Rivera
What color of gold is this.? I found the brand on Amazon but I don’t see the shiny gold that you actually have in this video could you tell me what it is? :-)

Hi 👋 Thelma thanks for sharing that with us
Thanks for watching.
Thank you Miss Thelma for this Teaching Video! I think I will go to Hobby Lobby and see if they have these paint pens or similar ones.
They are truly amazing. Thanks for watching.
Thank you Thelma for sharing! I will definitely give this a try! 💕 💕 💕

I had to do the whole ring!!!
I learn so much from you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.❤
I'm so glad!
Used those pens when I was into various paper crafts. The good ones were so much fun. Especially on black or dark colored paper or item!
Thanks for watching Barbara.
Thanks so much for the learning channel! I always learn something from you! Mostly good things. Lol
Lol!
This was very useful, thank you!
You’re welcome.
You could use a tiny paintbrush to spread the blob of gold.
Wasn’t blob jewelry in in the seventies?!! Not a whole lot of good style happened in the seventies! Arrrgh! Harvest, avocado green and brown, not my taste! I love jewele tones
Yes! Perfect for tiny prongs as well.
Thank you for suggesting these jewelry paint pens.
Thanks for watching.
I've got some things that I will do this with. Thanks for the information and tutorial. I also don't mind the base copper showing on certain items but sometimes a piece calls for brightness. That Betsy Johnson turned out great!
I agree; thanks.

Thank you Thelma for this video ❤ xoxo😊
Thank you Liz!
If it doesn't dry too fast I would dab some on a flat surface and mix a couple tones together to get closer to actual color. I think it would look better.
I agree, you could create a custom shade by mixing.
Hi that's such a good idea it's amazing
Thank you.
Thank you so much four information, is so helpfol 👍🙏🙏🤗🤗😘😘
Thanks.
There is also gold and silver clay I have never tried it the downside you have to bake it I think the pens are better.
That is awesome!
Thank you.
Very informative video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Monique.

If it does come off what I think you could add is a top coat to seal the marker.
I thought about dumping a bunch of matching pieces in a gold or silver plating tank.
It's fantastic, It's very unique in how well it adheres to metal.
@@ThelmaThrift thanks

Premium promo enamel for jewelry on Amazon
Thank u for ur tips
Welcome 😊
Thank you for the tips on touching up jewelry with the pens! Does your touch up seem to last a while on the jewelry?
Yes. It does. Especially on textured items. Thanks for watching.
@@ThelmaThrift That's awesome! Thank you!
Did you clean the pieces before painting? And if so how did you do it?
Yes. I use the ultrasonic cleaners. Thanks for watching.
Oh great! I'm trying to touch up, but not sure.
They work great on most things.
What are the pens? Specifically for jewellery or are they for writing etc like "Sharpies"
No they are for repairs on jewelry model etc.
How long does this paint pens last? I am told you can use the enamel paint testor paints to repaint vintage jewelry
I'm not sure I guess it depends on usage, mine are still pretty full.
Does the paint rub off on your arm/clothing?
@@CraftyTurtle no not at all.
@@ThelmaThrift thanks
