Tip for sawing out multiples from @thenomadicpine - “Here’s how I create these floral accents & templates ⬇️

✏️ First I sketch out my botanical onto paper.

✂️ Then I cut it out and tape it onto my silver (I use packaging tape) so it sticks when I’m sawing.

🪚 Saw, saw, saw..

🌸 After sawing, I have a silver floral accent and a template so I can replicate the same flower again and again. One side of the template is covered with tape making it less likely to bend or rip, which means it will last a lot longer. If you want both sides taped (similar to lamination) just flip the floral over next time and tape the other side down. You’ll have a fully protected paper template!

I use this way of creating templates in my silver work all the time including this cuff bracelet!” AWESOME thanks for sharing Kiera we appreciate you!! #sawingtips #sawingtip #sawingjewelry #floraljewelry #diyjewelry #jewelrymakingtemplate #diyfloraltemplates
