what type of iron filing did you use? i have a tendency to put a pin between my lips on occasion or prick myself with one plus i have allergies, so curious what type of iron filing.

The kind you get at Bird Brain Designs.

just love those chickies, and that bee hive is too cute for words!

My bad, it is called emery sand. For some reason I had iron shavings in my head. It feels like that when you hold the stuff. it is real heavy. Good stuff though. You can get it as well on Etsy.
