About Me

- This is my attempt, (and it will either kill me or cure me!) to step away from my commercial training in costume jewelry. To develop a way of creating that is more of a meditation, a practice. One necklace, every day for a year.

looks so groovy with the purple and black. I bet the peaches are good where you are!
ReplyDeleteGosh, you have no idea...I'm going through a plum and blueberry mania as well this season.
ReplyDeleteA gothic peach pit with dramatic flair--it makes me think of James and the Giant Peach, probably because Roald Dahl's writing always has a gothic edge to it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I loved that book!
ReplyDeleteI am just wondering how did you make the wholes and what did you use to make them so you could thread the purple floss through it it make a necklace. thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer, I used a dremel or some people call it a flex shaft to make the holes. It's like a mini drill that's hand held. just got a hold of the pit and went right through. Thanks for looking!
