Luckily I’ve never actually lost one of those little buggers….I’ve dropped them often enough! 😯 😆
dropped what often enough??
If you are dropping Windstones you are on restriction!! HEHE
That’s the way it soundedpegasi1978 wrote:Well drats! I was rinsing off the dragon I was working on last night because I didn’t like how he was turning out and the jewel fell out. 😥 I think it went down the drain. I wasn’t exactly happy with the jewel color though. The topaz didn’t seem yellow enough for me.
Does anyone know what size crystal goes in the PYO dragon’s head? I want to look around and see if I can find a brighter yellow one to replace the one that went down the drain.I don’t know off hand, but I can find out.

Oh, Nam DNA, cool. 😈

When my kids were younger, one of the things they would do for fun was to get a tool of some kind and dig around in the cracks of the cement floor, near the eye and jewel gluing area. They would dig out handfuls of jewels and eyes that had gotten away and ended up in the cracks!
Hehe…Like a treasure hunt! I always get frustrated when one falls out…which thankfully doesn’t happen often because then I have to hunt it down. At least I got lots of practice over the years hunting for the screws which will sometimes fall out of my glasses! 😆
You can also use a small peice of bees wax to pick up stones. That is what jewelers use when they are setting stones. 😀
