I think it helps an artist up their professional offerings. So far I'm only a "one-off" artist.

I love your new solder on copper toggles and it is something I have been wanting to try. Yours are especially rustically beautiful! Will you be listing them soon?

Generally a series will percolate out of having a collection of certain beads, thinking through a design and then make pieces to use up all the particular materials. <br />Love your pieces, Mary. Melting solder on copper is sooo much fun, thanks to Richard Salley. As for steel wire - another favorite thanks to Brenda Schweder. It is such a forgiving metal to manipulate. Only wish we didn't have to take the extra time for cleaning and then making it rust-proof. But the end result of this metal always makes me want to do more.sandi mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02936873481818244101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-15792026155866177162015-07-31T19:36:31.370-04:002015-07-31T19:36:31.370-04:00very cool clasps!
