A silver drawing
Ther are some pepople that when you meet them, make you go further than just dreaming. This is what happened when I met Karinouchka . Before I just wished to try silver clay I had heard of 4 years ahead without ever doing it. How could I be sure not to through everything away if it was a wreck?
So when Karine said she'd show, me I was so excited! That time I made earrings for my daughter and a silver leaf for myself. But the seed she has planted started to grow, and I just had to go further. It started with an idea that became a drawing.
But I had to be over with my Christmas Fair before getting to my personal projects. Today was the "D" day. First I made a very simple ring for my daughter, she wanted it that way, and now she is very happy!
My second try was a pendant for my mom's christmas present, the drawing above!
Thought I would have some problem when firing, but Sabine's tuto on "Parole de Pâte" and toilet paper came to my help!!! The firing went great and nothing moved. The surprise will be complete on christmas day!
A great thanks to Karine for her do's and don'ts and most of all her frienship. I just hope I made you want to give it a try too! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
