my bracelet from the workshop


how cool is this!! i took a chunky bracelet making workshop on saturday at Nadine's artescapes studio. I love this thing and i am very proud of it. I didn't make all the charms of course, but many of them are bits of earrings and necklaces that i never wear anymore. the angel to the right of centre is one of the few charms and beads that sarah brought back for me from Texas when she was there for SXSW. I love beads. From now on whenever anyone goes anywhere please PLEASE bring me back beads....
I hammered the silver and made the clasp tho. when i get my car i'm going to go over to Capilano Rock and Gem and get myself a hammer and an anvil of some kind so i can do more of this kind of silver work.
But my left arm and both hands are sore from working the metal! it gets very hard when it is worked. I have been knitting today but only a few rows at a time as my fingers go numb. Jeez do you think i should go to the doc? i think i will call tomorrow. Except that i haven't gotten any of the tests done that he wanted me to get done, like the mammogram and the fecal smear thing or whatever it is called. I just don't want to do those tests right now. I guess i should tho. I could go to the osteopath, that worked very well the last time my arm was so sore. I wonder if my arm and shoulder will be fine once i get my car back?? HMMMmmmmm
