Soldering with Kate Richbourg.

Last night on the set of Beads Baubles and Jewels we learned to solder.

The amazing Kate Richbourg taught us how to make 

simple copper and brass hammered rings.  We were all hooked immediately.

Here is my grouping.  I love to wear them stacked on each other.

We used a Blazer torch, liquid solder and copper and brass wire.

Here we are putting solder on the ring joint.

I loved making some thicker rings and some thinner.

I can't wait to get home and buy all the supplies to make more!

Birds and Bees Nursery.

I just dropped off a bunch of goodies to the

They are carrying NW natives, gardening supplies,

terrariums, and will have my cards, prints, jewelry

and even a handful of original Collage Blocks.
