Lumiere Paints

I love Jaquard Lumiere paints, they give a dazzling shimmr to anything you might want to paint. I have tried to imitate them mixing acrylic metallics with colours to duplicate their range of amazing shades but it's not really the same. I don't know what they put in these paints to give it that luminescent glow but I love it. A perfect addition to my sparkle addiction when making jewelry. Their gold and pewter metallics I have give the richness of real metal to something I paint it. I used them to paint this polymer clay rose ring combined with purple acrylic. This isn't available now (gave it away as a gift) but I'm planning on many more in similar style to sell on Etsy.

I only have the exciter pack at the moment, but since they've lasted so amazingly well with their great covering power and high pigmentation, I've been eyeing up buying the full set of 32 full size jars from Dick Blick. I like that Blick have reasonable prices to send things to Ireland. I think it cost me 30-somethign dollars to ship for a large order last time. I've encountered such craziness as over 100 dollars to ship supplies that cost under half that and couldn't possibly be that heavy on Ebay. If you're going to shove half the price of the item into the shipping cost at least be a little more subtle when dividing up the cost.
