Karen Trexler, our Cool Tools resident artist received her MFA with a focus on metalsmithing and enameling in the spring of 2018 at the University of Wisconsin in the spring of 2018 before joining the Cool Tools team.

In this video, Karen shows how to apply and torch fire Accent Gold for Silver™ to fired fine silver metal clay. This technique requires a minimal amount of tools and even time. It's the perfect technique for bringing the perfect "pop" to your pieces.

Note: Karen used Finishing Touches Mold - Star Flat (below) for star accents in silver clay. Be on the look out for a future blog on how to create this piece in metal clay!

The tools and supplies used in this video are listed below.
