How do you get a piece of broken china carved to look like a heart for jewelry making ?
I am trying to learn how to make those beautiful broken china jewelry pieces you see at flea markets and street fairs.. myself!!
The artists use drills, grinders and files designed purposely to grind hard material. A Dremel drilling-grinding tool set. You should be able to get most of the tools at Harbor Freight. You’ll need a set of pliers, wire cutters, a small vise, a ball-peen hammer and a heavy hammer. Get some good safety goggles, a filter mask and some work gloves.
Be very careful to observe all safe working conditions. Protect your eyes and lungs.
