This semester I was enrolled in Jewelry and Metal Working I. We went through many assignments and my first one i do not have a picture of. The second assignment was wire and i made a snowflake coin that i attached with a chain i made from wire and a clasp from larger wire.
Next i balled two ends of a strip of wire and made it into a cuff.
Third came the bezel wire. I used a Crysopraze stone with bezel wire that i saudered onto a crescent moon.My last assignment was just finished. It took the most work but is my favorite by far. I used 26 pennies. 12 of them were domed and saudered together to form beads, the rest were drilled through and then all put together with jump rings i got from Walmart.
I just finished my pennies today and I am so excited! it looks just like i wanted it to! Can't wait to wear it for graduation!A friend of mine told me this when he saw it: What do you know, a penny for your thoughts and a quarter back. That should be worn, as a reminder of self worth. That every thought is valuable, even your own.
