So busy making!

I find my making can be sporadic, but also cyclical. I can be totally immersed in one medium for ages,…

Day 13. “ Geometrical” #kernocraftchallenge @k

Day 13. “ Geometrical” #kernocraftchallenge @kernowcraft . Another flashback, resin and silver ring with one of my fave hammered sterling silver rings. I used to do a lot of resin work, not so much these days. #maker#melbourne #jeweller#setter#experiments#resin#colouredresin#shapes#fun

First foray into casting in place! I did lose a CZ

First foray into casting in place! I did lose a CZ before it even went in to be cast, and one is set upside down 😆(damn my eyesight) buuutttt it worked surprisingly well. I can see why people do it. I’m glad I can set though, so I just replaced the missing one after it was cast. I wasn’t especially careful with the design or finish because it really was an experiment. #maker#melbourne#jeweller#setter#lostwaxcasting#castinginplace#cubiczirconias#bitoffun#willexplorefurther

Day 12. “ Hammer” well I couldn’t choose jus

Day 12. “ Hammer” well I couldn’t choose just one! 😆 I love my hammers, I even store them with baby socks on the ends to stop them getting chipped or rusty. #kernocraftchallenge @kernowcraft #maker#melbourne#jeweller#setter#mybabies#hammertime#ifihadahammer#idhammerinthemorning#idhammerintheevening#tools#essentials

Day 11. “Support” @kernowcraft #kernocraftchal

Day 11. “Support” @kernowcraft #kernocraftchallenge This is my Mother in Law, Ellen or as we affectionately called her “ Gigi”, we had a wonderful relationship, she was always interested what I was making and doing, she was so proud of me when I Graduated Uni, and was more of a mother to me than my own. I got lucky when I met my hubby, because I got her in the deal as well! She passed away last year at age 96. #maker#melbourne#MIL#notallMILareawful#family#jeweller#setter#gold#silver

Day 10. “Claw” @kernowcraft #kernocraftchallen

Day 10. “Claw” @kernowcraft #kernocraftchallenge literally... I’ve used this little jig a few times now, it helps hold prongs in place while you solder them. I’m sure there’s a “ proper” way of doing it, but having never been trained I just use what I can to get the job done. #maker#melbourne#jeweller#setter#selftaught#haveago#practice#practice#practice#neverstoplearning#regretsihaveafew#tooljunkie#

Day 9. “ Flat Lay” @kernowcraft #kernocraftcha

Day 9. “ Flat Lay” @kernowcraft #kernocraftchallenge I’m a day late! Yesterday was very busy with telehealth appointments with the RCH for brownie. But I was itching to do this one. All these pieces have significant meaning to me (and it was hard to choose a selection) either because they are a connection to people and places, or because they were things that challenged me technically, or just because I love wearing them. Some cast, some completely handmade, and some made by others. Most I wear regularly.#maker#melbourne#jeweller#setter#gold#silver#wax#ihavetoomuchjewellery#neverstoplearning#challengeyourself#noparticularstyle
