purpleponyartLast night was a really, really good class. It was mostly a work night. The senior student, who has taken this class before, helped me with the polishing tumber. It seems like an easy process, but there are many steps to remember, such as not losing any of the polishing shot and making sure the cover and inside of the lid are dry so that it will seal properly. It was mostly a work night, and I discussed my idea with Shona. This project may be a little more ambitious than the time left allows, so I think I'm going to focus on the silver bird cage part the most, which means I have to order more silver. 50 grams of silver just barely covered my necklace :S
Our necklaces were due last night and everyone else's seemed more creative than mine, but I got some very nice compliments on it. The senior student had three pieces, two of them made with itty bitty jump rings about 4-5 mm wide. Oh, it was beautiful, two rings were connected to one ring and connected together they made a lovely flowing pattern. Another classmate makes her own beads, and incorporated some purple lentils into a simple chain design. Every piece was so unique, and even the simplest pieces had wonderful qualities, such as another woman who was a little insecure about her design, but the piece had such a nice weight to that was also attractive.
