Bails for Beach Jewelry. Made from die hammered rod.


Detail. Recently I needed to spend some bench time due to how I was feeling.



If you look in the fringes of Kelly’s Garden Sign, you will find Waldo. A prehistoric relic Lizard. You can tell by his tail that he’s been “playing with” the cats



Another group of hand wrapped bails. Business at the Beach shop has been busy this summer



More pendants in process. I’ve had an extra heaping of painful recently. That makes more Jewelry.



A Composite Pendant in the works.

Do you know the word Pareidolia? It’s seeing images (mostly faces) in random patterns. I looked over and saw a .... Gorilla Mask? Lay over the edge of the tub where I’d tossed my tee shirt, before showering. I didn’t know I had a Gorilla Mask .... haha. Do you see it?



Some more involved pendants require die and carving by hand. Here’s a Period Harbor Scene.



I’ll add the rest of the text later. The post is getting mixed up moving so much stuff around.

Hope you enjoyed the post. Thanks for reading.

Hey Kurt,

I want to start a survey:

What ICON should I make a die of? What Symbol do you think would catch attention and find a market???

Think about this though. It would be neat to have a “dog” ... but then you realize I’d need like 38 breeds to start. Whereas if you say “Unicorn” ... that can be more generic.

But... I’d love to hear your ideas.

THANKS!!!

Gary
