    Default Holly and berries

    One of my first customs came back into the store for a quick hone right before the holidays.
    I thought it was appropriate for him to use this one today, and I thought I'd share it again with all of you.

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
    Cheers!

    Thanks! It's simular to cloisonne in that the enamel in places inside of a cell. However the actual enamel is an epoxy resin instead of glass enamel.

    That's just awesome! Does that mean you're supposed to pack it up after the holidays and put it away with the rest of the Christmas decorations for the year?

    ohhh,, thats beatiful!! theres like a little "shadow" or outline in the green where it meets the metall. Is that just the epoxy-resin climbing the metall or did you do something extra special there? I got to say, i love your posts because the scales are marvelous but i do feel a bit discomfort though.. i myself will never make something that intricate or laboursome and it makes me a bit upset. however, its a great inspiration and i wish i had your hands.
