Not quite like riding a bike
Getting back into the studio (studio: sounds really fancy but for me entails walking over to that side of the basement) was difficult after taking so much time away. I thought I’d start out nice and easy with this ring: sterling, vintage brass and a nice cut of chrysoprase in a glowing green. So many silly errors were made along the way–things I should have known better–not at all like riding a bike, apparently. I can’t decide if this ring is going to end up in the shop or if I will tuck it away for a later craft show. (If anyone is interested in purchasing, just email me.) When it comes to sourcing gems, I find I gravitate towards the blues and greens so if you’re noticing a trend, that’s why. This particular stone reminds me of the algae-filled pools we saw on our honeymoon right before the massive waves would crash over them and swirl everything back up–I could stare at it for hours.
That ring is beautiful in don’t see anything wrong with it
Thanks Jessica! I actually didn’t phrase that very well–this ring is perfectly fine but the things I did leading up to it I had to scrap and start over. It’s tough sometimes getting back into the swing of things.
And when you haven’t done something in a while your fingers don’t really want to do what you want them to do lol
true!
This is a beautiful ring!! Think how fast you “re-learned” …
Thanks Mom!
Hi,
Interesting blog. Like it very much. I was searching the web for Duck pond psu and came across your blog. I was writing a post on riding a bike through/near campus and wanted to talk about my duck pond stop. Then I click this “bike ride” post… but this is about something different. Still, figured I would comment to say hello and thank you for the good work on all the plant links to the side.
Hi Nari, thank you for your kind comment 🙂
