What once was old is new again. So I get this text from a friend it goes something like this... Friend: I really like those earrings but I don't do dangles. So... Could you make it into a necklace? Me: Sure! I can do that. No problem. (because I'm a metalsmith and can do ANYTHING) Friend: Can you put the down first then up? Me: Wait, what? You want both ? So that's how the conversation went which led me down this journey of WTF? So I begin the process. I had drawn up an idea. Trying to keep things simple. But I wasn't feeling this. That bar was not going to make this hang right and I was walking down the road of soldering this then that. Things could get messy. Frustration now sets in. Why oh WHY?!!! Why did I agree to do this? Why didn't I just leave it alone? Then I make a ring to dangle them on but it changes the feel of the piece ENTIRELY! More frustration. WHY?!!...
Nothing is perfect. Nothing is permanent. Nothing is complete.
