I made today two new pendants. The first one I started last night, but I didn't like they way I did it, so I rewrapped it this morning.
It is based on the nautilus tutorial I bought a while ago from Etsy. Purple freshwater pearls and a white milk opal briolet.
The second one is a paisley pendant using the same pearls and additionally white freshwater pearls and sterling silver beads. I quite like this one.
Finally good news on my Koil Kutter. My blades purchased from the US arrived (my friend Mary on Bookmooch was so kind and sent them to me as shipping to Cyprus from the company was $25, which is crazy! Just to see the difference, putting them in a small envelope Mary paid $1.80 for the same blades...)
Today I put one of the new blades in my KK and it cut my copper and silver coils like BUTTER!! I can't believe the difference! I put all the cut rings in the tumbler, so tomorrow my next project will be chainmail again.
I wanted for a long time now to wrap around two circles/ovals one inside the other, one end wider than the other, but when I started to wrap on one end, the other would not stay put. Last night I had this idea how to do it, using Corra's pipa tutorial, and it seems to be working, I like this resulting pendant. Sterling silver with amazonite dangling bead. 2.5x3 cm overall.
