Handiwork

I've been silent for a while, but I have a little more of my (brilliant, of course) work to share.



These were a gift to a friend of mine who had kindly made me a beautiful cape last year...so I owed her something. I made them to match one of her ball dresses.






I made this for an equally good friend as a graduation present. She isn't exactly girly, so she needed something different.

I need to get some clearer pictures of this, but that will have to wait for another day, when it's not so late.
That is one of the best parts of jewelry making, I think: making something that is right for a certain person, occasion or outfit. And there's just something fun about working on some radically different projects; each one can be nice without any of them being the same.

Bluegrass Jam

I stayed with Fred and Leon a little bit ago, and got to sit in on a bluegrass jam. It was fun. I have a video of Fred singing, but I'd have to get her permission to post it I think. I also have another video where Leon is making funny faces when she's not playing but that's not her fault because I was making faces at her and she didn't know (I don't think she did anyway) that I was taking a video.
