Using pour on gloss toSeal stickers onto the bottom of porcelain soap dishes, would it work?

[addicted2crafts.livejournal.com]

Out of the blue today I got the idea to put cute stickers down onto the bottom of the soap dish where the soap sits. I was wondering would pour on gloss  set up against porcelain, and would it seal? Or would you be able to lift it up out of the dish once hardend, because I don't want it to do that I want it to provide a water tight soap tight seal to the edges of the dish.


My other question would be would the stickers interfear in setting up? And would the pour on gloss  ruin the stickers as it sat on the face of the sticker and sat up. I also would consider different kinds of stickers, not all are smooth and flat, what about the kind that are 3d, or felt, or even the puffy ones? Would the type of sticker matter any?

Just the one this week.

I only have one new necklace this week so I'm not bothering with a cut.



Chocolate Lace Necklace: I used this really rich, chocolatey brass chain and an antique key for this. Basically, I'm still playing around and trying out new things. This is way different from anything I've done before. I'm quite happy with how rich it looks though.

Beading - Martha Stewart

I scanned and uploaded the chapter on beading from Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Crafts; here's the link.  I previously posted the chapter on Candlemaking.  If you make something from the book, be sure to post it in the comments!

making gauges?

So I want to make my friend a pair of plugs and am wondering if anyone has any tutorials? I was thinking of just buying some flesh tunnels and using resin kind of like this http://www.mega-robot.com/collections/plugs-gauges/products/photo-image-bear-plugs. Thoughts? Other ideas/techniques? I've never actually worked with resin, but I think it would be a fun thing to learn. I also had the thought of making some out of fimo or other clay, but I'm wondering if that would be toxic to put in one's ears. Any and all advice welcome. I'll be sure to post whatever I make!

Thanks to you all.
