Work In Progress Wednesday for January 11th

Just finished the soldering process on these beauties- most are for two different clients, the top one will go into my Etsy shop.

Tomorrow I have to set the glass in all of these and get them polished up. I'll do some glamour shots on Friday!

Speaking of Friday, there's still time to enter the giveaway

Meh!

I finally got a good chunk of work done today- 14 pendants in various stages of soldering.

I picked 6 to focus on finishing so I could get a batch into the tumbler to polish. I filed and sanded them. I attached those in need of attaching. I made 6 bails for them.

I got out my third hand. (seriously, that's what they call this thing)

I lined up pendant number 1 and its bail.

I lit the torch. Spit, spit, sputter, sputter. Ran out of gas.

And it's 5:00pm on Friday night. I have to get dinner started. Guess I'm off to the Depot bright and early tomorrow!
