Mother and Child Birthstone Ring
The connection between a mother and child is like no other. This year why not make your mum a unique, simple and striking ring that represents the bond you have by incorporating both of your birthstones.
This Mother and Child birthstone ring is an adjustable style so there is no need to worry about finding out a size!
The ring setting used to make this ring takes two 6mm round cabochon gemstones, we have used turquoise which is the birthstone for December and a pearl - the birthstone for June.

Step By Step Instructions
Choose your two desired 6mm round gemstone cabochons.
You may find it easier to hold the ring band in a vice or a clamp to keep it still and leave both of your hands-free to apply the glue and gemstones neatly.
Firstly make sure the flat base of your cabochon gemstone is nice and clean.
Take the ring and make sure that the flat plates are also nice and clean, apply a small amount of Devcon 5 minute epoxy glue on to one of the flat plates of the ring, then place your first stone on to one of the plates making sure is nice and central.
Apply a little pressure to make sure the glue has coated the bottom of the stone and leave in place until it feels secure.
Wipe off any excess glue that may have spilt out with a damp cloth before it dries.
Repeat this again for the second gemstone on to the other flat plate then leave this to fully dry before wrapping it up nicely ready for your mum.
This make can also be used after Mother's Day and be re-worked for you and your friends as these rings would make great birthday presents too!
CUSTOMISE YOUR KIT
Make the design your own by using other gemstone cabochons or another ring setting.
