So I got off work early yesterday and I was just about
to start working on the new pieces for my upcoming shop update
when I decided to focus on myself instead..
Yes I do feel a little bit guilty...
But I realized that I have my next dress fitting April first.
No joke!
And I need my bridal crown by then so I can see it all together.
In case I look ridiculous I will have time to come up with a back up plan
ha ha
So I sat down at the bench and stared at the little triangles I had cut.
At the little filigree swirls...
...and then I started working.
Bending wires, making little silver balls
for flush set stones and filigree roses.
Slowly it started to come together.
And before I knew it I had landed on a design!
Taaadaaa!
But you never know with me. I might still tweak it or change it.
At least I felt like I got somewhere.
I have been slightly terrified of working on it for some reason.
I am really hoping I'll get some time to start soldering it together tonight.
Please cross your fingers that I won't mess up!
love ~tess
Look forward to seeing it done! (and no need to feel guilty!! you're entitled!)
