day 23: design something every day

"beware of dog" ring.

i grew up with a german shepard named iago. he was a wonderful dog and a great explorer/companion for me.

he was also very protective of his dog bowl and tried to bite me every night when i added scraps from our dinner plates. 

day 5: design something every day

im in the studio today, so i made something for today's entry into my design something every day: day 5. i have no idea what type of stone this sparkly faceted purple cone thing-y is, but its sparkly: need i saw more? it was drilled for a bead so i set a post on the sterling silver ring shank and set it on that.

turned out pretty cool.

design something every day: day 4

a series of rings set with various semi precious stones has emerged from my design something every day challenge. today is day 4 and i found a pink quartz (?) cylindrical large holed bead that i will line with a sterling silver tube cut and formed to wrap over the bead at the top and soldered to a bezel on the ring shank at the bottom. i think its fun...and pink.
