MY LATEST NECKLACES, SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS!!!



I am not comfortable with colors, I wear gray, black, white (must be a Sicilian thing), so when I want to create something with color it can go two ways....or I love it or I hate it!
It all started when I was cleaning the workshop and getting ready to do a flea market.
I found a chintz tea cup, the only one I own, purchased 11 years ago $70.00....CRAZY!!

Anyway since then I have been playing with colors..... 

I am using resin flowers, making the metal hearts using solder and a torch and I am creating one of a kind  chains. 
It takes a long time but it's worth it!

I was never comfortable with torching but I am now enjoying it more and more....
my first time using a torch was in Diane Cook's class and then in Terri Brush's class, after that I didn't touch my torch until the Chintz tea cup appeared!

Don't give up, practice practice

Another excitement in making these pieces is adding color. I never know the exact color until the epoxy dries.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend
Ciao for now Rita

  1. I LOVE these. Soldering is something I've never tried, but now I see that I must learn.
