I have a pair of auger shell earrings in the works, too, for this collection. Not the same kind of auger as this one.
I did have some shell fails yesterday, much to my dismay. I was planing to use some Dosinia shells, drilled the holes perfectly, and managed to chip the shells right by the hole putting the earrings together. I'll have to find another use for my Dosinia's. They just aren't sturdy enough for earrings, and maybe not sturdy enough for jewelry at all. I'm hoping to wrap up the Sea Notes Collection by the weekend, but it totally depends on whether I continue to break shells or not. I swear a little piece of my heart breaks off every time I bust a shell! It's heartbreaking as well as frustrating. Any broken shells get taken out to reside by the pond. You didn't think I threw them away, did you? Of course not! They are still precious to me! Wish me luck that I don't break any today!
Do you ever mess up something you planned on turning out perfectly beautiful? Do tell, and make me feel better!
I have to say Happy Birthday to a special fella in my life! Happy Birthday Zach! I love you!
Have a Wonderful Wednesday!
Love,
Del

What a gorgeous new necklace! You are so creative! I was trying to think of working on a project that I had trouble with...and I remembered a purse I made and spent HOURS on that was a disaster. It makes you want to quit for awhile....walk away! But then you have another idea and off you go! You sure encouraged me with your comment on my sewing this morning! I thought a couple of my comments were not very positive...so I just went and read YOURS again! Hugs to you! ♥
