Contrariwise ramblings

Lots of stuff!

I love doing these Workbench posts.  I sweep the crap off my table with my hand, lay out my unfinished pieces, and snap a few photos.  It's really a little slice of my life.

I've had a really busy weekend.  By tonight I'll have 4 new pieces of jewelry finished - including a pendant with the blue stone you see at the above left.  I've also finished photographing several other pieces that are in my "backlog".  (I just never seem to have enough time.)

And, finally,  I will be listing several brand new pieces on my Etsy store over the next couple of days.  (Starting later today.)

And do you remember the piece in the middle.  It's a huge freeform Graveyard Plume agate.  To the right of it is the setting, which is partially oxidized and waiting to be polished and set.

I started it a while back and wrote about it in an earlier post.   It's taken me seemingly forever, but now it's almost finished.  The uneven natural stone on one end was definitely a new experience and I learned a lot.  What I can absolutely promise is that you will see the final necklace posted in my blog sometime this week - along with more about how I made it.
