Bodacious biker belt buckle

Our designer Evette sent me over an idea for a bicycle belt buckle that she made:

Tough enough for a biker, but made for a woman 🙂

Ingredients:

• 1 of item #55-000-05 Idea-ology™, Ornate Plates (Antiqued Metals)
• 1 of item # 30-193 Buckle Blanks, Nickel Silver (Silver)
• Item # 86-343 Win-Ox™, 3 oz.
• Some parts from item # 82-500-08 8oz EasyCast Epoxy Kit
• Bicycle picture, copyright-free from Flickr

Instructions:

1. First heat belt buckle and then patina it.
2. Use punch to make holes in the ornate plate & set in eyelets, hammer down and file, then patina.
3. After patina dries on belt buckle, drop photo into the ornate plate, fill with resin & place belt buckle in desired spot so that it dries with the resin.
4. After that dries, flip belt buckle over, level out and pour desired amount of resin (either over the entire ornate plate or just in the oval lip).

See how quick & easy it is to make hip jewelry! (Above the hip, I guess.) 🙂
