@rebeccanaturalist.bsky.socialI finally had time to get this pendant finished up. It is very clearly my first metal piercing project, but considering how rough it was in the middle stages I'm happy with the outcome. The braided waxed cord is likely temporary until I can find my brown deerskin leather. #MetalSmithing
@rebeccanaturalist.bsky.socialSketches for acid etching future jewelry in this semester's #MetalSmithing class! Digging out my life after a grueling move to a lovely new apartment at the start of the month, glad to be on the far side of that.

@sblades.bsky.socialWanted to make a little example for my class of how far you can push the copper before it breaks. I didn’t get it to break, no annealing just pushing deeper and deeper. You can see in the cross section how thin the metals gets. #metal #copper #metalsmithing #forging #teaching
