Solder your heart out

Monday, March 10th, 2008
Necklaceimg_0756_3 I must say I LOVE to solder. Unfortunately my assistants do not agree. Maybe is the smell of occasional burnt flesh or me yelling and saying "OW" one or two times - but hey - all my nails are still in tack and I have no visible scars - and yes I still love it. I have soldered ornaments, wall plaques and all sorts of fun items. My latest venture was resurrecting some old necklaces in my drawer. You know you have them…go check. You may find chains with some pretty pendants, or all sorts of things. You just need to dig a little. So my story goes  - I loose a back on my earring - can’t find it - have to go to my jewelry drawer that I have not visited in far toooo long. While I am in there I see all these fun necklaces that I don’t wear. Why? Well I LOVE my photo necklaces. I have some great ones from Planet Jill that I adore and would never part with and I have some Keychainimg_0763 soldered ones that I have made and honestly, I just love wearing my babes around my neck. So I grab some chains and head to the studio. A few clicks of resizing some pics and a few "OWs" and I am set. Brooke modeled for us so we could take some quick pics. Want to learn to solder? Come join us at our BCreative Weekend - we are soldering on Thursday - March 13th! Can’t make it? We carry soldered kits in the studio.
