Fantastic to see you use the Italian glass method, but with fimo instead... That's so clever! The outcome is gorgeous, too. Requires so much patience, jeez...
What a treat..A big hello to Cynthia from a fan in Montreal..I own a couple of your unique beads..with my friend bought two necklaces ..Cynthia and Dan collaboration..Lovely memories of those days…U used to own a Bead Store in Montreal…Warm saludos de Ruth
Exquisitely gorgeous 🥰😍 full of interesting breathtaking details and wow the design and colours are beautiful so congratulations you definitely nailed 🎉 🎉 ❤️😍😍❣️
Very interesting technique with fimo, congratulations! I only knew the micromosaic in spun glass. Is the gray base on which you insert the tiles always fimo? When the design is finished should it be annealed in the kiln? Thank you if you would like to answer my questions
The polymer filati are embedded in gray Fimo Soft. Once the mosaic is finished, it is baked at 230-250°F for 30 minutes. When cool, it is lightly coated with a matte lacquer.
WOW!!! Talk about having patience. Beautiful.
I love Cynthia Toop’s work - it’s so beautiful x

@@CynthiaToops Thank you for your reply, I would love to try your technique. Thank you for this video
So beautiful, How many minutes did you bake it and at what temperature?

Cynthia says the threads are baked 15-30 minutes during preparation. The final piece is baked 30 minutes. The Fimo is baked at about 230-250° F.
