67- Herkimer Diamond with Blue Chalcedony
Herkimer diamond and blue chalcedony, set with little recycled silver balls. It feels like forever ago when I made this pendant. It's been quite a while since I've made anything new. Being on the west coast has been pretty wonderful, but I really do miss my jewelry bench! And while I did bring a few tools and supplies with me, working out the logistics... -
67- Pink Plastic Whistle, Transformed.
Luca came home from a birthday party (a while back) with this pink whistle in his goodie bag.

(He's been so generous with his discarded toys and things ever since the Squash-a-Tron incident.) I had planned to make this in the same vein, but then realized I had no leftover plexiglass remnants since... -
64- Pebble Pendant OR The Triumphant Trio... of DOOM!

So, FYI, before leaving New York, I finished up as many pendants as I could, took some quick pictures of them, uploaded them to the blog (some with tentative titles...
