They wait for the right inspiration to come.<br /><br />This cab took a while.

I ended up with a perfect sterling leaf that I'm going to use for another piece of jewelry in the future.<br /><br />There's picture of it in an earlier post of mine: http://akacontrariwise.blogspot.com/2009/12/using-jewelry-saw.htmlContrariwisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09397443426432139398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-45420594943752242302010-01-28T10:53:07.137-05:002010-01-28T10:53:07.137-05:00That is beautiful!
