So excited!!!


I hope this isn't premature...but I am so excited about this project that I had to share the concept before it is even finished.
I have been designing this shuttle for two days straight and I think it is finally where I want it to be.
This will be a pure silver shuttle with pic tip and enameling if all goes well.
I have to meticulously plan every step before execution because failure will be too costly.
The price of silver has doubled since last year and unfortunately the two major manufacturers of precious metal clay are in Japan so I have no idea what that will do to future supply.
Anyway...now that I feel good about the design I think I can finally get some sleep. When I get excited about a project I can forget to eat or sleep for a couple of days....I know...it drives my hubby crazy.

Anyway, on another note Piccadilly discovered her feet today...hilarious!

The silver shuttles are listed



Well, the shuttles are listed and they are a smoke'n deal. Because they are my first shuttles and just slightly on the "rough" side their price is only just above cost...so first come first serve.
I had a hard time deciding which one to keep for myself and I am still not sure if I made the right choice, I truly like each and every one of them.
I am confident their new recipients will love them too!
