These Boots Were Made For Wearing

I have a collection of doll parts that I like to add to different projects.

These doll boots are needed for a necklace.

The doll parts are vintage and as you can see they were already predrilled. However, the hole is not where I need it. I created my new faux soldering top with Jewelry Clay, silver Pearl-Ex and a silver screw eye.

I placed my clay around the boot top, covering the current hole and added my screw eye.

They look really nice as is, but I wanted the look of a soldering application.

Silver Pearl-ex does this with no flame required! All I had to do was let these cure overnight.
Jewelry Clay is a special medium allowing me to do things I could never do in the past.
