[QUOTE="Houseful, post: 9747710, member: 1067"]Thanks Charlie, I’ve got an old Quality street tub full of them myself. I’ll often just buy them if they are cheap because they sometimes have a nice silver clasp. Ive had another thought, I have gesso around so I could prime with that on the bald bits and then use a pearlescent acrylic paint that I could mix with other colours to match the pearls here better than a nail varnish. It’s worth doing well as these are collectible pieces. I will show the results. Thanks.[/QUOTE]
