Golden Butterfly Cuffs for Spring

[@LedgerAndLace]

Along with your history lessons, I love the fact that whatever you're presenting has so many other applications. This technique can be used for jewelry but could also be applied to furniture embellishments or onto decorative boxes or or or! Endless possibilities. THANKS, Mark! 🙂

Me, too! One day I'll wear them like I just don't care!

[@Oonagh72]

Those are kind of insane! Use a soft makeup brush, like an eyeshadow brush to pat down the leaf. It makes it so easy to buff it down without scratching it.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Such a great idea! Thank you for sharing that with me!

Que moldes lindos!!!! Fiquei apaixonada por eles...♥ E que lindo resultado Mark...Adorei! Tenha um bom final de semana...Beijos...

🦋🦋💙love it! What is the advantage of melting glue versus using the gun? TY!

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Hi Lu...It's up to you really. I like the skillet because you can melt a lot of glue all at once and fill tons of molds without waiting very long.

[@OrganizeCreateDecorate]

These are beautiful. And to think they started out with hot glue! As always, you've topped yourself.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

That is super sweet of you to say OCD! I love that hot glue can be so versatile.
