By God I think she's done it!

Besides the crappy looking picture from my crappy little digital camera, I think I did pretty good. You wouldn't know it from the picture, but it is a sterling silver pendant with a faceted labrodite in the center. I think it took me longer to figure out how to get the 1/16th drill bit in the drill then it did to saw and file this peice.

I have GOT to get a digital SLR or else I am just going to prohibit my neighbor from taking vacations so I can have continued use of hers. My little Kodak Easy Share isn't exactly easy to take a clear picture of jewlery let alone easy to share. I think they should have named it Kodak Extremely Frustrating. That has a nice ring to it don't you think?

She said, "let there be fire!"

You all should be running scared now. I bought my first torch today. Okay so it isn't my first torch if you count my little butane job that works to make a great creme brulle. Not that I have ever made one. Of course I had to test it out to make sure it worked. Almost melted a fridge in the process, but I think I may like playing with fire. Is anyone else conjuring up images of Beavis & Butthead?

Welcome to 2007 Cheryl

After being questioned if I have a blog many times, I have finally made the leap. I figure I have so many of your blogs in my favorites that I should join the fun to. I promise to be better about leaving comments as I would love to receive feedback from you to.

Since I am so consumed at mastering the art of jewelry making, most of my posts will be about my exploration into this great art. I will also share pictures of the good, the bad and the ugly. Well, perhaps not the ugly unless I can master to make something so ugly that it is cute like those little hairless dogs that are so pitiful looking.

Any way, I am glad that you are here and I hope you come and visit again.
