I’ve Said It Before…

Thank you, Fire Mountain Gems and Beads!  A box arrived today via Fedex containing my entry in the Fire Mountain Gems and Beads 2019 Jewelry Making Contest in the Metals division and (be still my rapidly beating heart!!!) my piece won a Grand Silver Prize Award and gift certificate!  I am thrilled!  All those hollow-formed beads that I made using my hydraulic press, the twigs I’d cast in silver, and the beautiful enamels that I’ve worked with off and on over the years came to fruition in this necklace, which I’ve titled “Harvest”.  Today I’m celebrating.  Tomorrow I’ll be perusing the FMG catalog and choosing some goodies with which to use my gift certificate.  I love FMG!!!
