Eilisain aka Lisette in Gaelic

Welcome to my blog, where I document my process in making jewelry, muse on the influence of art and the joy of making beautiful objects.

my first cast piece

I'm so excited, I could barely leave the school to come back to work (blah).

Several of us (in Casting I) did it together, as one person melts the silver the 'assistant' inserts the flask and lets the wound up piece of the machine go. I could use more consistent metal terms but for the basics of this post, I'm not.

It felt like Christmas as I cleaned out the flask and plaster.

I'm still fleshing out the designs for these pieces but I am seriously pumped! Pin It
