Show-and-Tell Thursday

In case you were wondering what $120 of sterling silver "wire" looks like these days, here it is. By contrast, that whole spool of copper was only $23:


 Isn't it just beautiful? It smells pretty great, too. This weekend I'll be making 3 custom sentiment bracelets out of the silver. I'm excited to make them out of copper, too, for the first time. Oh, and I got the nest-like bunch of round copper from a friend who obviously knows my love language. *ha ha* Screw metal allergies. It's gonna make some killer tangle bangles. Can't wait to get crackin'!
I finally purchased a brass mallet for striking (without hardening).
