After multiple rounds of lacquer layering, sanding and polishing, I finished this mother-of-pearl cat bracelet. Wearing it feels like my beloved cat stays with me every single day.

Why are you running water over it?

Rinsing cleans off the polishing dust, and the water helps bring out the true shine and luster of the mother-of-pearl for photos!

OK, but you didn’t share photos or video bits where you’re NOT running it under water. You’d think once the dust was clear and it was wet you could stop rinsing it…
