Here is a tip to make uniform balls with bezel wire from @mimicha__fira - “I always use yellow gold bezels for my work, and have many gold bezel scraps after each sawing that are too short to be used for anything.
So I recycle by turning them into small little granules for adding adornment to my pieces, by marking the scrap in even columns with a scriber. (Cut them with shears, flux and torch) That way I can create uniform sized granules.” Love this so much! Thank you so much for sharing with us! 🙌 always love hearing how different people do the same technique! We learn so much from one another. Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekend ❤️ #makingjewelry #jewelrymakingtip
