Post a Tip about this Tutorial

This is good beginning tute for LOS.

I love your new site, thanks so much for this great tutorial.

Thanks Cozysister! For the first time my antiqued pieces look grrrreat!

Absolutely great beginner's tutorial! You've probably saved a lot of people a lot of frustration.:^))
I really love that you showed the bottom of the glass and what that looked like. You must be a woman after my own heart, because you are using what looks like a knitting needle for a stir stick/jewelry fisher-outer. Those are my favorite jewelry tools!

Great tutorial Cozysister! Thanks for sharing.

You have helped me to get over my fear of using chemicals. It sounds so easy if you follow your very well laid out instructions. Thank you so much.

Can I put a dichroic glass bead in the LOS without damaging it?

I don't know about LOS, but you can put the dichroic glass in Silver Black no problem!

I'm sorry to say that I don't know about dichroic glass, birdwatcher.

Finally a LOS tut with pics that show each step! I'm a very visual learner so this really helped. Now I'm not so afraid to try it. Thanks so much!

Those rings aren't the most delicate or well crafted ones you'll ever get to see rather they are to an extent chunky in appearance.

This is a definite MUST read for beginners! I recently purchased some LOS and was afraid of trying it until I read this tut! Thanks for posting!

Thanks for the tips. It is a very simple but attractive thing. I will follow your instruction and will make it.
