How to make Jewellry from Acrylic pour "Skins"


Today I have made a video for you regarding making Jewellry from Acrylic "Skins"



Skins are the left over paint that runs off the edge of your pour painting and collets on the surface that you are working on.

Jewellry from Acrylic Paint Skins



I personally work on Reynolds Plastic Coated Freezer Paper which is available on Amazon. 
When you work on this type of surface , it is easy to peel off the paint when it is dry and save it for useing for jewellry. Drying can take two to three days depending on how thick the layer of paint is.



I hope that this is helpful

Thanks for looking

Welcome to my Arts and Crafts Blog. - Post 1


Hi there and Welcome to my new Arts and Crafts Blog



My name is Jenny Dowding.
 I live in Gloucester UK. I am a Midwife and a Mum of 6 children. I live with my Labradoodle Lola and my 2 Bengal cats - Max and Jamal.

I am coming up to retirement age and currently I work 2 days a week and during my spare time I like to do various hobbies for example - Card making, Jewellry, Photography, Crochet, Knitting Newborn Baby Hats for Delivery Suite, Alcohol Ink Painting and Acrylic Paint Painting on canvas.

I came to painting and arty stuff late in life and I am really enjoying creating beautiful things. I have been accepted to join the artists and sell my art at the Gloucestershire Arts and Crafts Centre in College Lane, Gloucester. 



My  display will be up and running from 1st August 2018.


I am planning on showing my latest Art on this blog, and I will be selling the art and also taking orders for commissions.

All of my Art is Original one off pieces and cannot ever be exactly reproduced


Thank You for reading my Blog

Happy Crafting
