Monday morning

I nearly got hit by a car and a motorcycle this morning. Not really nearly but almost nearly. It is partly the fault of lax road rules here but also my own stupidity. I recovered as our taxi drove us to the MRT (underground) station (Husband was going to work; I was going to jewellery) and then I realised that I hadn't got my partly prepped bits of jewellery with me. I had to take a taxi back home to pick them up. I considered getting back into bed and staying there just in case the day didn't improve.

Anyway, here is one of the latest pieces. This is the 'go to the back of the class and practise your handwriting soldering' design. One of the pebble shapes is copper (top left) and the rest are brass. It's quite nice, isn't it?

(*Ahem* I left the solder visible just so that you could see how beautifully I'd done it!)

Hi Jenny

Oh, yes - that's a beautiful piece of work and so unusual. I have several friends whom I'm sure would love it too. Clever lady.

But take care crossing the road in future, my dear ;)

Lovely piece... I love the organic-ness of it.

Glad to see you're soldering on..!

Debbie, I will. Thank you. I am usually very careful but that day I think all my biorhythms were out of synch! Or something.

Jen, thanks lovely. Tee hee.
