As you can see it was cast from a wax mold.
I've been making this rose in medium or another for three or four years now, and it's nice to have something wearable as a result, though it's about a size 6 3/4, and way too big for me. Sad day.
This is my wire tree, with "pearl" (costume, but I don't know what because they're from some old necklaces my grandmother had) leaves and fruit.
Okay, so the big purple one obviously is amethyst, and the amber one at the bottom is supposedly tiger eye, and the beige one is probably picture jasper, and I don't know what the others are. Anyone know? Also, anyone have any ideas about what to do with these? For juxtaposition purposes, the amethyst is probably about 1.5 inches. I can grind them down into other shapes, and probably will with the amethyst, but I'm not sure about the other ones. I love the blue and white one. The picture jasper is shaped like a piece of pie.

You're so artistic! I absolutely love the wire tree (I've actually been looking for one, and I'm not nearly ready to make one myself). The rose ring is gorgeous too. Do you do these projects for school too? Are you taking classes in metal working? Anyway, I'm really impressed!

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier about the tree--it's gorgeous, but I'm afraid it's an absolute pain to ship things to Canada, so I'm just going to enjoy looking for now. I can't wait to see what you make next! Have you thought about opening an online store to sell your work?
oh my god.
i love that rose ring.
you should make more and sell them,
because i would so buy that.
=] i love your talent.

Kilara,
I actually sold that ring to one of my mother's co workers. The problem is that I don't have the equipment to make these, or the funds to get the equipment to make them. Thank you for your appreciation though! Maybe someday I will be able to make and sell them.
