Week - 19

I made this mobile/cell phone dangly(minus the caged component) for a friend about a year+ ago and about last Oct she gave it back to me and asked if I could add the Herkimer diamond nugget (she wanted it in there for theraputic reasons). At the time, I hadn’t done any jewelry for many months and I tried a few designs to hold this awkwardly shaped nugget nicely, but I wasn’t happy with any of my efforts and knew I could do better, so I cut them off each time. I asked my friend if should would mind giving me some time,. until my skills have picked up again and I can give more thought to a better design that would hold the nugget very securely as much as being pretty. Anyway,. I finally sat down and thought about it again one night this week and felt more confident that I could do it now that I’m back ‘into’ jewelry making again,….and this was the result. I know it was a long wait for my friend,. but it’s free,lol and I think she will love the result. It now just needs to be popped into the tumbler to shine it all up and off it goes back to my friend. Phew,.. I’m glad I have that one off my plate now,lol.
