Thank you so much, Patty!!! I live in RI, the jewelry making capitol of the US, and I got the metal discs at a jewelry findings warehouse store. I just used basic techniques with molding and braiding polymer clay If you give me your email, I will try to give a more thorough direction.
Thanks again!
I love this method you used. It makes it look so "old world" like something from my grandmother's box. Do you offer step by step directions? where do you get the metal disc? Stunning!
