So I know quite a few of you have been wanting to see the new copper stand I made last week with my new blow torch. Here it is. I'm very pleased with how it turned out! It will hold either a TON of earrings or loose beads. Wendy was very nervous about me drilling holes on the insides of the vertical side bars because the drill bit slipped off a couple (ok, several) times and gravitated towards my left palm. She was making all kinds of snide remarks about tetanus shots and missing work so she could drive me to the ER. But I persisted without heeding her safety warnings or alternative suggestions for holding the stand while drilling. I only nicked my palm once and now you can barely even tell that the drill bit went through my hand! But doesn't it look cool? And with the other stands, too. Very pleased with my Tool Man Tim efforts :)
And then I had fun making gift boxes out of scrapbook paper, which really didn't take me terribly long to cut and fold up. But they look pretty spiffy, too. Betting these won't last past this Saturday at our trunk show on the 13th at my house!
And check out Cassie's great set up at our show last Saturday! I kept telling her everything on her table felt so calm and zen. Her pieces are simple and elegant.
