My day job has been ALL consuming. All day, long hours into the night. Sleep has been a preferred commodity instead of a required one as of late.
I’ve spent very little time with my new torch, which makes me sad. Ah, to win the Powerball and be able to fabricate jewelry full time. But, you don’t visit this blog to hear me whine, do you?
I do have several projects lined up to finish though, and I’ve posted a couple pics below. The red stone is a huge agate that is going to end up as a ginormous ring. B0th of the labradorite cabs will end up as pendants. The tiny striped malachite cab is going to take its final shape as a ring too. You can see the sketch of the finished ring above the actual stone. I blogged about sketching and saving the sketches along with the stones in an earlier post.
