Torch Fired Enamel & Decal on a Copper Pendant

Here's a simple but striking project that incorporates copper sheet, powdered enamels, and custom made enamel decals, to make a sweet pendant that opens the doors to many personalized projects. The techniques shown are basic and can be used with pre-made copper parts and decals as well as those you create yourself. Using a torch for the powder and a small kiln for the decal you get to experience the different means of melting the enamels onto the copper. In fact, once the decal is fired on in the kiln, you can add more powder and torch it. So cool while being oh so hot!

Disclaimer: During this project we are interacting with a number of potentially dangerous materials and/or equipment so take care to follow closely the manufacturer's instructions. When working with powder enamels proper safety equipment should be worn, such as a particle mask, or preferably a OSHA approved respirator. Also, when working with torches, fire, and compressed gasses, have an up to date fire extinguisher handy and dress appropriately, natural fibers, closed toes shoes, hair pulled back. Let's make creating fun and safe!
