Stroke of Genius

Yesterday, I was getting ready for doing my seed beads and resin cabochon and I stumbled on some rings.  I put two plus two together and the result are show above.  I am mainly happy with the result.  If I try this again, I will take a bit more time, not stressing myself.  I was in a rush and hurry to get it done.  I was too much into getting result.  I wanted to see how it will end up into.  It is what happen the first time I do a project.  Too much in a hurry to see the end result.  I want to see if it will be a success or a failure.

For the resin cabochon on a ring, I consider it a succes, even if there is little minor inperfections.  For a first try, I can live with the inperfection.  What I liked about this project was the colours of cabochon that I have.  It is nice to do a variety of colours for those rings.  I don't know why but I thought of Sailor Moon.  In his manga/anime, each sailor scout have a colour for her costume.  The colours of my cabochon doesn't exactly match those of the sailor scout.  Nice thought anyway.

The hardest is to wait for the glue to set.  I also took a glue that is smelly (the e-6000).  The rings were bought at a craftstore.  It is a one size fit all except for one.  Would be fun to be able to do myself the rings, I guess.  I had done some rings in the past but not like that and it was in a class setting.  I don't know if I could try to do one right now.  I do have some of the material.  I don't know if the soldering part will be possible with what I have.  It will have to go on the to do list for a later time.
