This week I'm trying to make a couple of things, since I went to the gem show this weekend and bought some new goodies. I have a lot of stones. I don't need anymore for a while. But, it's nice to have new things.This will be a pair of post earrings featuring a matched set of amazonite stones and the last of some square fire opal. I love using things up and thus clearing out space for something new in my stone box. Square stones are killer when it comes to creating bezels- not my favorite. Probably that's why I've had them for a few years! But if I get all the bezels made today, then tomorrow I can solder, set and polish. We'll see....!
And here are the finished earrings:
What's on your "drawing board?"

Ah, using graph paper is smart. I tend to sketch on blank paper, but with graph you can use it for measurements or setting proportions. I wish I could use it, but I need an empty page for some reason. Analness, I'm guessing. :)
