3-4mm Swarovski Crystal Beads
4mm gemstone beads
3-4mm Freshwater Pearls
Beadalon 19-Strand Bead Stringing Wire, 0.018
Beadalon Toggle Clasps Small Silver Plated
2 Tube Crimp, Silver -2x2mm
3 Beadalon Jump Rings 6mm Silver Plated

Beadalon Beading Scissors

One: Tape blank to bench block. Stamp ‘bliss’, alternating placement of letters. Design tip: Start with the ‘i’ in the center and work to both sides. Two: Wipe multi-surface paint on blank. Wipe paint from surface. Three: Place beads on board in a pattern, build beads up to numbers on side to fit your wrist. Add the two numbers together to get the finished length in inches. Our bracelet is 7″ including the clasp. Four: Thread wire into crimp bead. Thread wire back through clasp end and back into crimp tube. Hold wires uncrossed to crimp. Check out this video to learn how to crimp correctly!

Five: Finish bracelet with crimp bead attached to jump ring. Design tip: Make sure bracelet is rounded to allow a little space between your beads, this keeps the bracelet from being too stiff when worn. Six: Attach finished bracelet to bar side of toggle clasp with a second jump ring. This makes it easy for the bar to fit into the circle element of the clasp. Seven: Get your yarn and mini-tassell tool ready! Eight: Wrap the yarn around the second notch on the tassel tool as in photo.

Nine: Follow instructions for tassel tool. Instead of using yarn to tie off the top and bottom, we’re using a large jump ring and wire. Thread jump ring into top of tassel. Wrap wire tightly several times around center of tassel. Cut bottom of tassel with scissors into fringe. Side tassel from tool. Use scissors to even tassel ends. Ten: Finish wrapping tassel tightly with wire, cut off excess. Tuck ends into tassel with chain nose pliers. Eleven: Attach tassel and tool to circle side of toggle using a smaller jump ring as in picture. Twelve: Make more!

That’s it, fun, fast and fabulous DIY Tassel and Stamped Charm Bracelets, make an arm full!

Metal Stamped Cupcake Necklace

We’re big fans of cupcakes, because, well, cupcakes. Need we explain further? This cloud blank from ImpressArt has a lot of potential beyond being a cloud! It makes the perfect frosting for a metal stamped cupcake or the ice cream topper on a waffle cone or maybe a fun hairdo! Some of our best designs come from ‘seeing’ things differently. You could rivet these components together, but we love the kinetic movement achieved by layering them. Try making the sprinkles different colors with enamel paints or color the icing with patinas. we like it just as it is, simply striking. Pardon the pun. If you’d like to make a Metal Stamped Cupcake Necklace of your own, grab the instructions!

You will need (These are affiliate links, if you click on a link and make a purchase, we get a small percentage of the sale):

Non-permanent marker

Step one: Tape blank to bench block. Use sprinkles stamp to add texture to surface of blank. Step two: The bottom part of your cupcake is layered behind the cloud blank. Use the blank as a guide and draw the cupcake liner form. Step three: Cut the sheet metal with your sheers. You need it to hide behind the front blank, so after you cut the sheet metal, you may need to cut it a little more to fit. Step four: Use the line stamp to create the liner texture, this will overlap a bit and that’s okay! You’ll need to hit this pretty hard to make even impressions so don’t be shy!

Step five: Layer the cloud blank over the cut metal, mark the hole placement. Step six: Use the hole punch pliers to punch the holes. Step seven: stamp YUM into the blank, add a period with the awl. Step eight: Use a cotton swab to apply the paint to the stamped areas on the small blank, wipe off excess with a paper towel or soft cloth.

Step nine: Place the stamped small blank into the dapping block, it should just fit inside of the cup. Strike tool with hammer, moving tool around as you strike to create a domed shape. Step ten: When you the blank is evenly dapped, remove it from the dapping block. Step eleven: It should be nicely domed like in the photo. Step twelve: Use the hole punch pliers to pierce a hole in the top of the blank.

Step thirteen: Connect the blanks as shown. Attach a third jump ring to bring the first two rings together. Step fourteen: Attach a fourth jump ring to the stamped blank and through the third jump ring on the bottom two blanks. Step fifteen: Attach the pendant to the ball chain. Step sixteen: Enjoy you calorie free Metal Stamped Cupcake Necklace whenever you like!

Basic Metal Stamping 1 2 3

(Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links, if you click on a link and make a purchase, we get a small percentage of the sale.)

Metal stamping 1 2 3, it’s really that easy. Here’s what you need to get started!

Brass Stamping Hammer
(I prefer a brass hammer to steel, brass is softer and disperses or transfers the energy of the hit into the blank preventing skipping or ghost impressions)

Metal Stamps

Steel Block

Stamp Straight Tape

Acrylic Enamel Paint

Metal Stamping Blanks (Try aluminum when you start out, it’s softer and easier to stamp than base metal and it’s less expensive.)

And here are the basic steps:

Step One:

Plan out your word, line up your stamps and make sure that the word will fit on the blank. Tape the blank to the bench block and start in the center working out from there.

Step Two:

Hold your stamp so it is in full contact with the surface of the blank. Make sure it’s straight, not tilted! Keep your fingers away from the top of the stamp. Give your stamp one good hit, don’t stamp more than once to avoid skipping or double impressions. Stamp your word, keep the stamps lined up to the top of the tape. You can angle the alignment of your stamps for a more whimsical effect. If you are worried about spacing, draw marks on the tape to line up your letters or even mark directly on your metal blank with a pencil.

Step Three:

Add color with a permanent marker, wipe clean with a dry cloth before the marker sets.

OR

Use acrylic paint instead, giving it a few seconds to set before wiping the surface.

And that’s Metal Stamping 1 2 3. You got this!

DIY Wonder Woman Cuffs

I may not be Wonder Woman, but there are days when I feel like I could surely use some super powers. How about you? If you’re standing strong in the face of adversity or just navigating the challenges of day to day life, a little bit of super hero inspiration may be just the thing you need to stay the course. In this case, I was inspired to whip up some Wonder Woman cuffs I can use to deflect whatever life tosses my way. Now if I can whip up a golden lasso of truth, saucy bustier and an invisible plane, we’ll really be talking!

Here’s what you need to make some Wonder Woman Cuffs of your own! Kapow!

Materials

2 1.5″x6″ aluminum cuff bracelet blanks
2 dimensional metal star charms
2 silver tone 1/8 Inch Hollow Rivets 1/16 Inch Diameter
ImpressArt- 3mm Fun Star Design Stamp
ImpressArt 1lb. brass stamping hammer
ImpressArt metal stamping block
Folk Art enamel acrylic paint licorice
Beadsmith EZ-Rivet 1/16″ Piercing and Setting Tool
Bracelet bender
Ruler
Beadalon flush cutter
Cotton swab
Paper towel or soft cloth

Amazon.com Widgets

Step one: Use the star stamp to stamp stars around the edges of the bracelet blank. Use the round end of your brass hammer to add texture to the edges as shown. Step two: Use a ruler to mark the center point of your blank. Step three: Snip the tops off of the star charms with flush cutters. (You can sand these edges with a heavy grit sand paper or jeweler’s file if you like.)

Step four: Use the piercing side of the riveting tool to make a hole in the marked center of your bracelet blanks and your star charms. Step five: Place rivet into the holes on the star and the blank, the rounded side faces up, the star should be facing with the raised areas towards the bracelet. Use the riveting side of the riveting tool to screw the rivet down securing the star and blank together. Step six: Insert one side of your bracelet into the bracelet bending pliers as shown.

Step seven: Bend the bracelet over the arch of the bracelet bending pliers as shown, this will bend one half of your bracelet. Step eight: Flip the bracelet over and repeat. Now you have a bracelet! Step nine: Dab the enamel paint into the stamped stars with a cotton swab or your finger tips. Let this sit for about 30 seconds, then wipe the ink from the surface, leaving some in the stars to help define them.

That’s it! You’re a crafty super hero! Aw, yiss.

These Wonder Woman Cuffs make me feel like I can take on the world. How about you, wonder woman?

Cheers,
Margot and Avalon

Embracing Imperfection in Metal Stamping

I was hosting metal stamping make and takes at a big trade show last month when a woman walked up to the podium. I could tell she was a perfectionist, she was very concerned with getting it right. It took her far longer than most to stamp the three tiny pieces of metal with one letter. She was becoming increasingly flustered.

“How do I make this perfect?” She asked.

“You don’t.” I answered, pausing. “If you want perfect, get a cast metal or laser inscribed piece of jewelry. This is metal stamping, it’s done my hand, it’s meant to have some imperfection.”

“I want it to be perfect.” She pouted.

I couldn’t help her. This was something in her head that I simply couldn’t fix. Some people are not capable of embracing imperfection in metal stamping or life in general. Which is funny, considering most things are imperfect. I find imperfection beautiful. Flaws, scars, asymmetry and inconsistencies fascinate me. I am not afraid of imperfection, I embrace it. Yet, I have to admit that sometimes even I look at my metal stamped pieces so intensely, that I begin to fall into the ‘it’s not perfect’ trap.

Then I let that go. Walk away, come back with fresh eyes and most of the time those tiny flaws have disappeared. There are a few things you can do to approach this. One approach is to intentionally skew the placement of your letters. If you make them cattywompus on purpose, then ‘perfect’ loses meaning. Plus, angling your letters adds a lovely touch of whimsy. Here’s an example of a cattywompus design.:

(You can get the instructions to make these earrings on the ImpressArt website.)

If that isn’t your style, there are ways to line up your letters, plan your spacing and get more consistent results. Using tape to hold the blank and placing the top of the tape just below where you want to stamp offers a guideline, marking the tape with equally spaced lines helps with spacing, making sure the words you want to stamp fit the width and height of the piece prevents running out of room, marking letter placement with a pencil offers a removable guideline, starting in the center and working to each side keeps your words centered. I like these tips and tricks from I Always Choose the Thimble on stamping and kerning, which utilizes techniques from typesetting. Here is a piece I stamped marking the tape and sliding the blank down to the top of the tape:

It’s easier to stamp straight lines than along curves, but with a little practice and making sure the stamps are curved you can achieve lovely results. Here’s a curved design, using the petals helped with the placement, it was easier to center the stamps:

As you can see, even my best efforts are not perfect and I am fine with that. When you’re first starting out with stamping, using thin rectangular blanks is much easier whether you’re stamping horizontally or vertically. There isn’t much room for error and that’s a good thing! Practicing on thin metal strips is another way to work on your technique. With metal stamping, practice doesn’t make perfect, but it definitely makes you more consistent.

My advice, embracing imperfection in metal stamping is the key to enjoying it! Nothing will make you crazier than trying to force perfection on something that isn’t designed for it. After all, that imperfection is how you know it’s been hand made.

Cheers,
Madge

DIY Lucky Charm Metal Stamped Necklace

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We’ve got a DIY Lucky Charm Metal Stamped Necklace that you can make and wear anytime you need to feel lucky. You’ll learn how to make the charm and how to create a coiled and beaded chain in this easy tutorial. Get kisses, not pinches, when you sport this on the town.

Here’s what you need:
ImpressArt SoftStrike Pewter 15/16″ Circle Blank
4mm Swarovski Crystals in Shades of Green
4mm Oval Freshwater Pearls
Daisy Spacer Metal Bead, 4mm
Shamrock Charm Bead
4 Beadalon Jump Rings 6mm Silver Plated
Beadalon 10-MM Jump Ring
Beadalon Ball Pin Medium Head Pins
German Style Wire, Round, Silver Plated, 24 gauge
Folk Art Enamel 2-Ounce Acrylic Paint, Licorice
Folk Art Enamel 2-Ounce Acrylic Paint, Evergreen
Beadalon Chain
Toggle Clasp
ImpressArt- 6mm, Four Leaf Clover Metal Stamp
ImpressArt Basic Metal Stamp Set, Uppercase, 3mm
Ergo-Angle Metal Stamping Hammer
ImpressArt 2 by 2-Inch Steel Block
ImpressArt Stamp Straight Tape
Round Nose Pliers
ImpressArt Bent Nose Pliers
ImpressArt Chain Nose Pliers
ImpressArt Flush Cutters

Step one: Stamp the clover in center of blank. Stamp around the edges, spacing the letters out and turning the block to face you as you stamp. Start in the center, working your way up both sides to spell Lucky Charm.

Step two: Use your fingertip or a cotton swab to wipe a small amount of paint into the clover. Let sit for 30 seconds, wipe off surface leaving paint in stamped area. Try to avoid getting green paint in the letters.

Step Three: Use your fingertip or a cotton swab to rub black enamel paint into letters. Allow to sit for 30 seconds and wipe paint off of surface.

Step Four: Use beads and a pearl to make beaded charms.

Step Five: Make your first coiled bead in your beaded chain. You’ll need to make wrapped coils on both ends. If you don’t know how to make coils, here’s a video tutorial.

Step Six: This is what the coiled bead should look like!

Step seven: To make the second coiled bead, make a finished coil on one end. Start your loop on the other end, thread it into one side of the first coiled bead, finish wrapping to connect them. Keep going, alternating between crystals and pearls on both sides for a total of four pearls and four crystals.

Step Eight: This is your finished chain. The pendant will hang between the two pearls in the front.

Step Nine: Connect the beaded chain to two chain lengths using jump rings. Finish the chain with a clasp. The toggle bar should be attached directly to the final chain link, you can open and close it with your pliers. The circle end is attached with a jump ring.

Step Ten: This is the front half of your necklace. Attach the stamped charm with a 10mm jump ring and the dangles all hang in between the first crystal and second pearl on the left side of the design. That’s it! Simply charming, yes?

We hope you enjoy making and wearing this Lucky Charm Metal Stamped Necklace as much as we do! Happy St. Patty’s Day from our home to yours.

Cheers,
Margot and Avalon
