Time on the bench
A bad pun… I feel like I have been creatively sidelined. Getting completely away from the studio and computer for a family vacation was lovely, but it has really put me off my creative game. (to continue the lame metaphor) Add to the mix the peculiar phenomenon that is Spring school/sports activities for a family and the result is more than a week of blog silence and limited studio time. The weather was pretty gorgeous last week so that made it extra hard to head down into the basement.
I did squeeze in a bit of time at my bench though. I’ve been working on the parts for a funky floral pendant for ages. I finally finished the metal framework, but now I am stalled. A bit paralyzed in the polymer clay end of things, I spent all my meager studio time playing with metal. I forged some chunky circles out of 10 guage wire. And I made my first two rings.
I am pretty happy with them for my very first attempt at ring making. The dot one even fits me! LOL

I love the dots. Naturally
