The sun is shining!

We have had two days of overcast skies and then some rain (which we always can use). As you have heard, Arizona is dry heat. Well, the monsoons in the summer make it pretty humid. Right now, it is very humid. I don't know how people do it where there is a lot of rain.
Today I want to finish some earrings and start a bracelet. I got some inspiration. Now, I want to see if I can carry it out.
I have two more weeks til class. I want to have my projects all together so I can go and do them. One of the lessons this time is straw casting. I can't wait to use my scraps of silver and cast them.

Sunday afternoon, cloudy and hot

It is 100 degrees here and cloudy.
I have done some etching this week. I am getting things ready for my new classes. I will use the pieces in my enameling class. The etching came out really nice and so I want to do some more.
Hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Finishing projects

This week has been spent finishing up projects. I finished a necklace that is sold and then one that is going to be mine. There is some UA game jewelry that I have been putting chains on.
I have started a ladybug project. Hopefully that will go OK. The patina and oxidizing solutions are out for delivery so I should get them any minute.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful week and have a wonderful Mother's Day.

A new month

May 1 already!!!! This month I have no jewelry classes. I hope to complete some projects. An order was completed for oxidizer and patina. These will be put to good use. There is a ladybug design in the back of my head that I want to do. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
