Time to get this blog caught up


Getting ready to revamp the studio...work area is now not working for metal...fine for beads but not for hammering.

Florida Beaders had a great time hanging out at Michele's a few weeks ago...so much fun that we are now working on part 2. So many nice projects were completed and so many new skills were learned, taught and shared. Very much looking for another great time.

I have been hammering metal and made a brass bracelet. First time...will be doing more of these.
I just love cuff style bracelets.


But now, I have tried some chainmaille...bezel set for a cab. This was something that was brought up at the meeting. The trick was finding one that did not need glue. Well there it is.
I found it on the internet and it took me 4 hours just to get it to this point. I am not happy with the ends, but I will continue to work away.

Then there was the viking knit, but I will save it for another time and another blog...
