My first "How To Video." I never thought I would do this but here it is! I wanted to share my findings with everyone. Like I said earlier enameling head pins has never been easy for me. Usually the enamel just bounces off the copper. I guess it wasn't a love made to last. However I think this time they may work things out and stick around. LOL! After balling up the 18 gauge copper ends I dip them into Thompson Enamel. Once the copper is covered in enamel I torch them using the end of the flame. I call it the fluffy part of the flame but it is basically at the very end. I'm heating the enamel slowly until it becomes red and then dip in enamel again. I do this at least three times. So far the enamel is not bouncing off the copper! Yay! Have a great rest of the week. Tomorrow is hump day so we are half way there! Namaste Kalaya
