Gosh, has it been that long?

As I suspected I have been terribly remiss at keeping up my Blog - photos were promised back in July and never materialised!  Well I did make those Curtain tie- backs and the lady in question was so pleased she insisted on paying me extra!

 I also got the Silver clay out and made a ring and an acorn bead cap, both of which I was very pleased with. Now have another pack of Silverclay and will be making something else soon.

 On that front have decided I really want to do more Sterling Silver jewellery. I recently made 7 ear cuffs, sold all of them before Christmas & have interest in 2 more, when made. The cutting, shaping, hammering & filing that goes into creating something from scratch with sheet metal is extremely satisfying!

Sterling Silver Ear Cuffs

My aspirations for the New Year, therefore are to learn to solder, spend more time working with metal (and making full use of my lovely new Dremel - Thank You Hubby xx); also to try & sell some more of my pieces - which means actually putting them in my Folksy shop & not just keeping then in a box at home! As to the regularity of my Blog?........well you will just have to watch this space ;-)
