That's what it feels like,
when I switch off my tumbler,
and go hunting through the steel shot...
Can you see it? A glimmer of silver? A hint of what lies beneath...
...searching...
...for sparkling silver...
Oh-so-shiny...
...and gleaming jewels...
...perfectly polished...

I don't think I shall ever tire of this kind of treasure hunt ;-)
Stay tuned for a preview of the finished jewels!
It's so much fun digging through the shot to find our pretties!! Have great Tuesday! Evie
ReplyDeleteI love it too, Evie! It almost seems a shame to patinate the silver when it comes out so shiny...but I do love how a patina really makes the details stand out :-) I hope you're having a great week!
ReplyDeleteAnd I STILL haven't bought a tumbler. How hard can it be?? Argh....

Really A-K?! They are SO good!! I throw in all of my finished pieces before giving them a patina, but it's also great for hardening earwires and jumprings, etc. You NEED one...trust me! ;-)
