It's fragile, but not too much (^ It's tough enough to be worn as a brooch or earrings or hair accessory.

Oh my, now this is what I call creative thinking. How did you even come up with that idea? It's brilliant. I have to try something like that!

First I've come across a beaded bead with the enameled wings, then I made a lot of my enameled flowers and then made this creature (^

Wow. Great control of wire and a cute idea. Is that a jeweler's enamel? It looks like nailpolish?

You are right, it's nail polish (^

Uhoh. One more project to look into. A long time ago I tried to do a wannabe closinne with epoxy, wire and lots of nailpolish.

This technique seems to be rather old and well known, but I've seen no tutorial on it, just scarce examples of the works themselves.
I consider it funny (^

Enamel is stretched as a soap bubble (^ That's a trick.
