New stuff

What’s on my workbench:  Working on lime leaf earrings for my friend Susan Helmich


Doing more stones and pearls from my class in SF with Michael Boyd
The ones I finished from the class were lots of fun; learned to drill with diamond bits and polish with diamond powder.  Beach glass furnished by a classmate from Venice Beach, CA.  I also finished a turquoise bead with overlay of mother of pearl and coral

Production pieces:  handmade Viking butter knives finally getting polished and Rudy’s stix too.
