Has anyone ever tried making these? Do you make them just like you make the resin jewelry? I have contacted a couple different places that make them but they don't sell them seperate. I would need to order tack as well but I don't need the tack just the conchos.

From my understanding.....you get the blank conchos, cut out a picture, and put epoxy on top to seal it in......I could be wrong though LOL. I've never tried to make them.

That is what I was thinking too. I may give it a whirl and see how it turns out. Seems like it should not be that hard but I bet it is not that easy either. LOL. I will probably have my fingers glued together or something.

seal the picture with modge podge on both sides and let it dry. Then put it on the concho with E6000 glue. Put on your stones. Cover the area with epoxy clear( found in craft stores). Let this dry in a container or place a container upside down over it. You won't believe how much dust can accumulate on the sticky surface if you don't. Takes a day or 2 to dry.
