[lace] Silver clay and lace - long

I have done quite a few bits of silver clay work. You don't need a kiln for small silver pieces - you can quickly 'torchfire' them with a small butane torch which cost only a few pounds to buy. The gold metal clay needs a higher temperature and is too expensive for me to experiment with!

Hello Rhiannon I recommend looking at these- it has given me some ideas. I especially like the last one- can you give a supplier of the Monovic thread? I don't know of any lace suppliers who carry it, it's sold as invisible sewing thread in haberdashery shops. The last time I saw it on
