was all the turkey s fault i had to come up with gifts for my girlfriends at christmas and had no money to buy a thing i was 13 years old what to do what to do somehow for some odd reason known only to myself i had saved the turkey wishbones from feasts in the past turkey wishbones could i make these into necklaces hmmm metallic gold paint hmmmm yup i painted those suckers ever so carefully drilled a hole in the top part of the bone used a ribbon and lo and behold necklaces yes indeedy i gave these as gifts that year and had one for myself i think my friends thought that i was cccrrrraaaaaazzzzyyyy i thought it was clever and cheap and that is how it all started then i noticed that i had some turquoise nuggets which i promptly wrapped in silver wire it was cheap then and tandy was the only craft place in town wish i could find that nugget today i know it is somewhere in this house i never threw anything out so then i went on to scavenge sea glass now mind you this was in the early 60 s and there was lots out on the beach when i was 15 these were wrapped in copper wire and pebbles became pins finally i moved on to sea shells and making earrings for everyone and myself i was an earring hog the discovery of polymer clay lead me to making some awful stuff and my mother wore them but not all i continued making earrings but it just didn t feel creative enough i needed something hands on so i took a metalsmithing class last year and this was my first piece that did it i was hooked on metal posted by gloria at 11 02 am 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday december 10 2010 what do i want to learn next okay so what do i want to learn hmm that is a toughy i am already learning so much in my metal smithing class at east tennessee state university this semester we had to do 3 samples a perfect cube a river rock and a 4 sided pyramid the pyramid had to scored and folded into its shape i learned that it is not easy to score brass if you have the wrong tools it is not quite finished yet that is this weekend s project as it is due on tuesday morning the rock shape needs more sanding to remove the excess solder these exercises were all about soldering and shaping so now i would like to learn the art of coloring metals whether by colored pencils paint or patinas i love colors so now we need tutorials on different methods of coloring metal asapdesigns has a beautiful example of colors done on etched metal at http www etsy com listing 58605727 go take a look http www etsy com listing 63891695 unisex copper foldformed cuff free this one is colored by the use of flame by wabibrookstudio i also really really really need to learn cold connections better i am not very good at it and need more work and instructions but the biggest technique i need to learn is designing i look at this http www etsy com listing 9023267 doppler effect by joyfulcrow and realize that i don t know a thing about designing stuff so i will be taking a 2 d class next semester in addition to another metal smithing class all in all i want to learn everything there is to learn about playing with metals maybe even welding
