What a MESS!

Okay Sherice, this is for you!


I told you I'm messy and this is what it looks like. :) I'm so ashamed (but not enough to change!) If I clean it up, I can't find anything. This is probably how it would look if you could peek into my head! I'm just a messy person, and it doesn't really bother me! LOL
When I first got the shop, I couldn't work, because it was too neat and clean!
I had to make a mess so I could create!

BUT...last night, out of this mess came this! A Corundum Alexandrite and fine silver ring.
I love it and started to keep it, but then decided to list it in my shop. But if no one wants it, it does fit me! :)
It's my first prong setting, too!

Oh! The white stuff all over everything is flux! I don't have running water in the shop! LOL

OMG! This is my absolute favorite!!!! How did you make the prong setting? I would love to be able to make prong settings like that. I have tried, but not too happy with my results. What gauge wire did you use to make this prong basket? It is perfect! You are getting better and better in leaps and bounds!!!! :-))))

And you call that a mess? I will never show you my mess. LOLOLOL!!

You know I can bet with 100% confidence, that you can just look at that prong basket you bought and make it easily yourself. I know you are that good, so don't tell me you are not. LOL! You are an exceptional jewelry artist!

I'll buy one basket from the source you told me, and try to figure out how to make it. I had made one for the prayer box pendant (my profile pic), but it was really tough to do it.

Okay... WOW! You make such friggin beautiful jewelry!!!
Now, if I could work in your kind of environment, I'd be quite happy here in my mess. Must be nice! Not to say that my mess ever gets clean but I do have to swipe things out of my way to at least pretend I have a clean spot:)

Tammy, that ring is the most beautiful one I've seen in a long time. You are amazing. Hope it gets cooler for you soon. Sally

I don't know how that ring could be any more perfect...unless it was on my figure. BTW, Alexandrite is my birthstone *hint*. :P

That ring is gorgeous! Since that's your first prong setting, maybe you SHOULD keep it :-)

*hides her workspace away carefully* I don't precisely have a workspace, it's more like an afterthought - it's the 6 inches of space between my keyboard and the edge of my desk! I don't think your shop is messy at all, it's lovely!

And that ring is -beautiful-, I do think you should keep it since it's your first piece for that type of setting. :)
