Powder painting beads and bead chain

[Skip48]

Hey it just came to me but what about that stuff you dip spinner blades in to color them? I suspect that silver ones you could just dip them in ...I think Spike-It makes the stuff and you can get it in Chart and other colors as well.

Never tried this with bead chain, but don't see why it wouldn't work and a lot easier than powder paint.

You can also use powder paint on mono eyes to make the eyes black, red or any other color. Here's a vid on a technique....

You can use nail polish, or you can use an epoxy type material with flakes of glitter. I use nail polish with glitter, than coat over that with Bug Bond.

I am not sure why paint the mono eyes when it's so easy to just use a Sharpie. The bead chain thing may have some good applications, but he talks about still chipping, but if you can find a way to clip them by the link between and stick them in the oven to cure that paint it's not gonna chip then. Possible find something really narrow or even some wire like he was using and hang them on something to put in the oven.
