RIP 1953-2021
Ok Back is making my legs numb just on the surface thank goodness. And it comes and goes. Afraid to walk around even with my walker at the house.
So I bought some more wire and started practice pieces. Been binge watching a few new wire wrappers on YouTube God some ideas so am moving forward.
I invested in some Dead Soft Sterling silver and some Gem Settings. Plus experimenting with some a Russian Designers weaves. All my stones are packed So I ordered a few more Laboridite from India some Pidgeon Blood from Africa and some Ethiopian Opal.
The opal came in and Boy was it tiny. The stones are lovely if you have a magnifier. They drew me in on price... Sigh. But I have a customer right now that wants a fine delicate Ring I have to find a Bezel set for the stone. Opals are delicate and need room to breathe. So I have to do a lot of research to find the best option.
Got to go the pain killers are working for now.
