What kind of paper did you laser print it on to? is it regular paper or cardstock?
Just for information, you might want to put a clear coat of something on the back as well. Galvanized, and even more expensive Nickel can be bad for the skin. Although not life threating, but if you have problems with a low immune deficiency, then it can make you sick. Not very likely, but just a caution. I have used everything here but the diamond glaze. I will have to check into that.
@aprilwoli pat catans, hobby lobby michaels…. any craft store.
that washer needed to be dry tumbled..it had burr in it..hahaha
Where can I get that big bottle of diamond glaze?
Wow that’s pretty cool.It looks like a big washer what size is it.Thanks (0:
@WaNNaBeT2008 diamond glaze gives a better sturdy effect almost like resin… modge podge is super thin and isn’t as nice to work with.
@selenaluverMMT I went to a hardware store… and they come in all sizes from quarter size to big ones like in this vid.
the necklace is very nice! if you want to buy fashionable jewelry check out the donnaliza collection on google and on facebook.
washer for earring?!
that must hurt >.>
where can i find those washers … they look big……
If you don’t want to use Diamond Glaze, you can also use a 2-part epoxy such as Envirotex Lite. You can get it at Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, etc. (Make sure to use a printable online coupon!!).

A girl at school made these and I wondered how she made them & luckily I found this video!
wouldn’t it be kinda heavy?
