Ok, I'm making teeny stamped metal embellishments to be used in my resin pendants. Remember Wile E. Coyote? He would always call himself a "Super Genius" while creating complicated ways to trap the Roadrunner. The traps always failed, leaving Wile looking like a "Super Loser".
I stamped out a few teeny nickel disks to stamp with my smallest stamps. Then I antiqued 'em and tried to shine them. My fingers are too big for this job, so I came up with the super bright idea of tumbling them.
Great idea! Oh yes! NOT! I lost a couple of them in the shot and I don't know if I'll ever ever find them. They can happily live with their new shot family and avoid the fate of Ice Resin.
So, I pose this question to you, my lovely blog readers: Do you ever tumble teeny silver things? Things that could easily be lost in the shot? Do you have a trick or tip that could help me? I'll be grateful forever if you could comment and share your Super Genius-ness.
Have a Super Saturday!

Yes, I do tumble tiny silver objects. After they are finished, I pour all the shot into a small mesh strainer and then dump it out on a towel.
I then proceed to play in the shot searching for my treasure. It's actually quite soothing. A little like meditation. LOL
Have a great week, my friend.
