Wow. Have I been having fun at silversmithing class. I finally *get* sweat-soldering! yay. i made 2 pairs of earrings today, one for me, one for my MIL whose birthday is in a week. They are in the tumbler right now getting nice and shiny so hopefully i will be able to take a pic tomorrow. Also in the tumbler - my cat pendant and my hammered and soldered chunky bracelet. eeeee!!
Also got some nice lampwork this week - 2 wonderful beads from Richard Ronsick of goofballs beads, and one of my favorite lampwork artists MEESH!!! (aka Michelle Goldstein) Her beads are warm and funky and fun to play with. Jeez I wish I'd taken some pics.....alas...too dark now and I don't have a spiffy set up to take 'em when there's no sunlight...if MIL doesn't like the earrings, I will keep. made with aquamarines (her birthstone) but very calming and grounding stone. I love 'em. love em love em....no she doesn't know i have this blog so it's not spoiling anything!
Watched "40 year old virgin" on the weekend. I actually found it quite funny despite the overwhelming bathroom humour (this coming from someone raised on Monty Python). But even better was Wallace and Gromit (Grommit?) the Wererabbit! Excellent. I highly recommend :)
