next on the table.......

after a few days of soldering some pendants...........................................this is what is next on the table........it is so amazing ..................all the wonderful new techniques available to age items you make to get the look of   "old" ..........not everyone is blessed enough to afford or locate an original antique........not that i can afford so much now.......but there were many years in our early marriage, that i just had to "make do"..................making things myself or settling for the "look" ..................................oh what a joy to be able to make something "look old" and share them with others....................
................................................... i am blessed !
