These beautiful Ankh Earrings are by Jennifer. She made a template for the forms, cut out the silver from a sheet, textured it, soldered on the top teardrop and earwire (folded behind out of view) and then domed and tumbled for shiny perfection. Great prescence and style!
These great Triangle Earrings are by Chris- completed the first night of class. She cut out the triangle shapes out of sheet, textured them, soldered on the earwire and ball accent on front, and called them done! Perfect everyday earrings!
Check out this awesome pierced and sawed Flower Pendant by Joan. She sketched out a design onto the silver, pierced holes, sawed out the design, domed and satin-finished the piece. Complete with bail it's ready to wear.
This is a Teardrop Pendant piece also by Joan. She cut out the shape from sheet, textured it and soldered on the decorative wire in sterling. Tumbled shiny, she then pierced a hole and added a bail.
Jamie worked on this Heart Pin for 2 weeks. After designing the piece, she cut the components out of silver sheet, and soldered on the 2 side wings and the 3 pieces of wire. She textured the piece as well and made a pinback and soldered that on, too. Great on a jacket!
Barbara's Triangular Earrings have a great modern appeal- she cut out the shapes of sheet and carefully soldered on the decorative spiral wire, then bent them into earwires. Tumbled for shine, she wore them home.
This is Amy's exercise in soldering rings together. A pendant? One of an earring pair? Only time will tell.....
Great work soldering everyone! Next week- more piercing and sawing pieces!
