So i managed to produce a little something at nics, it just kinda happened in my hands so it very freestyle, but i liked it. And I too have a a couple of "button" mould from which to make ear studs, and i also have a nother button mould for a charm.

The seed bracelet was also inspired by Nic so i thought i would include it in the same post as they are all down to her.

Hope you like them.

Jules - as far as i understand it from nics comment when she saw it on sunday irl, yes lol. All the wired are individually twisted on, which i now understand to be wire wrapping lol, it was the only way i knew to join them securely without having to solder over 160 links lol

Thanks Linda, yeah took a good few days and it got very heavy in my poor pliers lol

it was Em yes, and i loved it, working fast is the hardest thing so that is something i will have to practise when i can finally do some at home, but i love the flexibility of it, and yeah i thoroughly enjoyed myself, shame i had to drive home really lol

And I am just as impressed by the fact that all those headpins were handmade by Su before she even wrapped them! Fabulous work!

lmao Nic, yeah that gets really boring and in the end you pick up two or three at a time with the tweezers to do rather than one, as long as the ends arent near each other of course lol, but that was quite tedious lol. I wanna try a few more of these with less wires and including charms and stuff - once i get in my new room properly that is :D

Not at all forward hun, i kept thinking of it as a fringe but the moment you said tinsel it was like a light going on! lol.

I am so looking forward to seeing everyones work, and even tho you are all well out of my league, i am still rather chuffed that i now have something to enter too :D Cant thank you enough []
