Magical Painter's Tape

by Jennifer Brooks

We've all heard of covering your pliers with painter's tape to protect your wire. Here's another way to use painter's tape in jewelry making

Instructions

Do you have a delicate stone, but you need to polish your piece and don't want to damage the stone's polish or seal?
• Use strips of blue painter's tape to cover the parts of the stone that are exposed to potential damage. Whether you're using 0000 stainless steel (please wear gloves!) or a dremel tool and polishing pins or discs, the tape will keep your stone safe from the abrasive surfaces of those polishing agents.

Jennifer Brooks

Jennifer grew up in Denver but has called Portland, OR her true home for nearly 20 years. She has been an avid fan of crafts and macrame arts since she was a kid. She learned to knit, crochet, and sew from her crafty mother. Jennifer has a BA in Sustainable Enterprise Management and a MA in Organizational Management, loves foraging and camping, attends the Renaissance Festival, and has two older chihuahuas, Chicory and Dewey. Jennifer started Phoenixx Factor Designs initially as an effort to reduce waste by upcycling discarded fabric to keep them out of landfills, as textiles are one of the most discarded materials next to plastic. She made hats, fingerless gloves, and costume accessories from reclaimed materials. Then, she found wire wrapping at a summer festival in 2012 and has been fascinated by the art form's many possibilities ever since. Phoenixx Factor Designs joyfully creates fantasy accessories and custom jewelry for every day wear and special occasions.
