Nancy takes you on a private tour of her studio, which is where she makes her jewelry and where she films her videos for YouTube. In this video you get to see where all the magic happens, and you get a peek at all of the stuff she’s been collecting over the years. A few people have been asking for a tour, so here it is!

Note from Nancy: By the Way, that stupid cabinet is called a Taboret! I remembered the name of it about 2 days later. Sorry about the stuff!

In this video we are going to make a Polymer Clay “doughnut” ring with an open shank.  There are three videos in this project and we cover the following subjects: 1. Building a ring shank – how to size the shank, what metal to use, shaping the metal on a mandrel 2. Doming metal, creating a dimple and making a two part mold for the polymer clay doughnut.  Finishing the polymer clay 3. Making a washer and riveting the ring together.
