Drop the overripe tomatoes, people, and calm down! Don't worry, it's about my latest piece and I'll make it short because I feel the need to search the kitchen for some cookies and chai.
The start - a leftover piece of 12 gauge silver plated copper wire.
Next step - hands that can't keep still while a movie is on. Bending back and forth.
Step 3 - Hey, look! That's like a drop! Maybe if I make bead soup from different blues and clear and just a few brownish ones to pep it up (the only soup I'm better at making is pumpkin and potato soup) and put them on that dark blue wire and then ...
Silence with the odd mumbling thrown in.
Less silence, slight cussing. On many stitches I need to go through with my smallest hook to make them wide enough for the larger hooks.
Yawning. Ok, this is taking longer than I thought, I'll continue tomorrow.
Tomorrow:
Silence. Getting into the routine. Small hook, big hook, small hook, big hook.
Done! Here you go. Mabel's gift, in my Zibbet shop now :-)
And was that soooo bad now? ;-)
Beautiful jewellery you've made - and I like your description of the process.
