	How To Make an Optical Illusion Ring You Will Need Newspaper to cover your work surface Old clothes or a smock Some clear dome-shaped beads Acrylic paint in different colors A small paintbrush A plain ring Some craft glue Some water And a paper towel A picture from a magazine (optional)   Steps Paint dot Paint a dot on the flat part of a clear dome-shaped bead—this will be the center of a flower. Let the dot dry completely. Paint petals In another color, paint the petals of the flower and let them dry. If you don’t like how your flower looks, you can just wash off the paint with soap and water and start over. Paint over flower Now that your flower is totally dry, you’re going to paint right over it with a third color. Your flower will disappear—but don’t worry! You’ll see it again soon. Flip over bead When the paint is dry, flip over the bead. You’ll see your flower in reverse and magnified! You can find metal adjustable rings that have a flat disk on top at craft or jewelry supply stores. Glue bead Put a drop of glue on the flat part of your ring and set your bead on top so the flower is facing up. Let ring dry Let your ring dry for at least an hour or two, and then flaunt your bedazzling finger. Re-Printed with permission from Howcast Media, Inc © 2009
