marbled statement ring


My long time readers will know that I love colorful and funky statement rings! And I love using simple supplies to to make my own.

I am still loving Easy Marble (not sponsored) because you can use it on so many different surfaces. Recently I had the idea to marble some small wood slices to create light weight statement rings.

Easy Marble is a lightfast, quick drying paint that you can use on all kinds of surfaces. I've used a variety supplies to create a marbled effect- spray paint and nail polish and acrylic paint but Easy Marble is the best product I've tried. 

Simply drop colors into a pan of water and swirl the color around. I wanted the design on my rings to look like an agate slice so I swirled the colors in a circle over and over again.

Dip the wood slice into the color and pull it out!
I used E6000 jewelry adhesive to adhere the wood slices to ring backs.
The result are colorful and funky statement rings!


Looking for more DIY ring projects?

    Oh wow, these are great! I think I'll try this with my teen. The girls are just starting to wear jewelry. I'm thinking I may be able to put a little poster putty on the back of the wood slice and then stick it to my finger. Maybe it will work that when I lower it into the marbling mixture, I won't get messy. (Not that I'm averse to mess, just wondering if the marbling might be oil-based and hard to get off.)
