First project...

This is a photo of my first official project for metalsmithing...a copper necklace for my chain project - individual leaf forms riveted together, with varied size rivets and soldered wire on the surface for texture.  I think I got a B on it - kind of bit off more than I could chew in the time I had, so there are some things I wish I had spent more time on.  But overall, I like it! :)

Soon to come...the LiteBrite ring! (for my toy-inspired project...)

I think it's absolutely awesome!!! I think it looks like an A project! Do you wear it? You could be a walking advertisement you know?!:)

no, i don't get to wear it yet, my instructor still has it for grading purposes, and she puts her students' work on her website, so i'm not sure when i'll get it back...but i definitely plan to wear it!
