Just realized I haven't posted any of this in a while.

( There are pictures back here. )

I need to start getting to bed earlier. I'm having one of those 'I'm awake and this is an achievement' mornings.

I tested out the process of patinating copper by using crushed salt and vinegar potato chips and a bit of white vinegar the other day. It worked out rather nicely, I thought, although honestly I think it might be simpler to just soak the piece in a salt/vinegar solution next time and let it air dry- I'm going to have to make another one to compare. For now: ( it's a ring. )

Quick question, btw- does the alt text help at all? I don't know if I'm putting it in the right field for people who use reader software or not.

And a ring I finished last night.
( Word of advice: if the pattern says to use 3 millimeter beads and 22-gauge square wire, don't try making it 'just as practice' until you actually have those sizes. )
