Man I have been lonely beyond belief with my son in France with his Dad on vacation, Tony has his daughter so I am home alone to play with rocks, normally this is a good thing! Until you break them! Ughghghghg
Mom got me a new camera, so are the pics better or worse than usual?
Fran sent me these stone canyon preforms from our visit to Randy so I was ready to make my first set of a cab and matching earrings, the one earring turned up a little druzy pocket, which I thought was cool, so I was polishing them by hand, not dopped, on the end plate and the darn thing flew and hit my coffee mug
So here it is:
Tried to salvage it, but it cracked out all over the back so I will have to find some more to make a new pendant, this one was special since it was from our fun weekend with Fran and Randy
OK the good stuff!
Fordite, can I just say how much I love this stuff!!!! Someone very dear that didn't even know me sent me this piece months ago, he wants to be anonymous, but I love it, and he sent me other great pieces of material as well, so you know who you are and thank you!!!!! Another pricey material for me to want, LOL
Funky Glass-Jamie went and dug this out of her yard after our quad ride at 3:00 in the morning! LOL, so this one was special it is so funky I love it!
Sushi cabs-marble that Jamie and Rodney found, Fran sent me these pieces though it reminds me of good sashimi!
Blue Butter stone from Tony Terner
Boulder Opal, just when I said I wouldn't dirty up my wheels my niece found this little piece on my basement floor, LOL, if you get your magnifiers on you can see one pin size piece of color!
White Agate:
This was one of Ralph's preforms, I needed to practice my domes and ovals, I think this would be a cool ring for when Tony learns to do silver work, !
Blue Pietersite-
This was the little thin cut from the piece that Bobby1 sent me, I LOVE this material, it gets super shiny and the color is so incredible, thanks Bob!!!
Chlamydia Cab-LOL, this is some material that comes from a quarry in Easton PA, it has like metallic flecks and silver flecks in it, I love this but we can never remember the name, so I call it Chlamydia it sounds something like that, LOL
Ok all this quiet is getting to me and making me even more crazy! Everyone have a happy New Year, and be safe!!!!
