Butterfly Pendant using Scratch Foam by Valerie Bealle
Valerie Bealle, Metal Clay Artist and Instructor from Long Island, New York visited the Cool Tools studio to create a lovely butterfly pendant using silver metal clay and scratch foam. She finishes this piece with gold plating to add amazing detail. We have included her video demonstrating the Wizard 24K Gold Pen Plater with easy step by step instructions.
