Sixty Six Bracelets Later





I finished the bracelets I talked about in the previous post! I'll admit it was not easy! My finger tips have yet to recover from handling the metal and sliding the waxed cord knots. I've been applying vitamin E oil repeatedly, which is quite soothing. I hope I don't develop huge calluses on my fingers... well, at least they'll match my unsightly nails!! The sanding did a terrible number on my nails.

So, after all that whining, I'll share with you some pictures of what started as basic pieces of metal and cotton string...



...is now this:



I really like the blue, waxed cotton (reminds me of jeans); I just love it!




All of the little bracelets have been neatly tucked away in cute, shiny, gift bags and ready to be shipped.

Although the project (66 handmade bracelets) was a bit daunting at times, especially when I would need to restart a piece because of an engraving error (this happened quite a few times because of a little mishap with my engraving machine. Although it set me back a bit, I powered through and was successful in completing the project without being overwhelmed. And I have to say, at the end of a project like this, I always feel happy to have given my all.

Love this Rustic Wedding Band!

I just finished a beautiful, 2 mm thick wedding band in solid brass.  The ring has a nice, rustic, brushed texture to it.  I love the way the texture reacts to the light; it's almost like a cut diamond; gorgeous!

His and Hers Rustic Rings, Wedding Ring, Copper Ring

I am very happy to post my latest creation:

His and hers, rustic rings (use them as wedding rings or not)-   I wanted to add sterling silver lines to the basic ring and I changed it up by setting them on the bias (diagonally).  I really, really like how they turned out!  I always have a deep feeling of satisfaction when I make something and I'm pleased with the overall design; and this is one of those times.
