Weekly Challenge: Week 29 relic


sterling silver little guy (circa 1989?)

this is a piece I found in my silver scrap. I have had this for over 20 years. I made it while at RISD. I think it was a practice piece for a necklace I made for a friend.

Weekly Challenge: Week 28 reliquary

or more accurately...it's a freaking Christmas miracle I got this posted, with all the delays and stupid technical difficulties I've had. Thank you Charlie for all your tech support. I know it must get old...and hello glass of wine!

Weekly Challenge: Week 27 reliquary








paperclay, thread, sterling silver wire, paint, Mexican milagro from my dad

this one took a lot of patience; between the tiny knots and the hovering cats who kept stealing my thread. but I like the effect.
