If you are creative, I'll bet you've had times when an idea pesters you. A desire to create something just won't leave you alone. Will not "leave you be".
The chalcedony drops were purchased over a year ago and languished in my stash. I saw a necklace created by Marie Dodd, her August 9, 2011 post. See the cool elongated metal tubey thing dangling in the middle? I couldn't get it out of my head. I knew I had to play with a drop to get that "metal tube" feeling. Tonight I sat down with 26 gauge copper sheet, copper wire, shears, bench block, hammer, file, pliers and liver of sulfur. Bliss~
How lucky to get to make "stuff"!
I hope you get to scratch your creative itch this weekend.
Bless you all!
