why we do this

hi

i quite like the story of scosha and the term story jeweler. i think that all special gifts should have a story behind them.

i am purchasing the earrings for my daughter who will turn 13 this month and is "finally allowed" to pierce her ears-she still doesn't know it yet! she lived her first 7 years in nyc and has moved to more than a few countries since-a traveller she is and very fortunate dad moves around for work! her goal in life is to return to nyc to "live forever" as she terms it. we now reside in switzerland as unfortunately my daughter suffers from neuroblastoma and this was the suggested childrens hospital for her. seeing my husband is swiss it was the right choice-i am australian just like Scosha but travel was too far for a lot of different reasons.

the reason for telling my story is that i would like Scosha to know that we too have a story sometimes-when purchasing-and this gift along with the scosha story seemed perfect for my precious girl.

thank you Scosha.

ahhh, the modern teepee

En route from the workshop at 64 Grand Street in Williamsburg to sit near the water, I came upon this scene.

Learn about Precious Metal Clay

Texturing Metal Clay with Stamps, Molds, Texture Mats, Texture Plates, Tear-away Textures, Appliqué, Punches, Carving Tools, and More!

One of the things that makes metal clay - including both precious metal clay (Precious Metal Clay / PMC and Art Clay Silver and Gold) and base metal clay (bronze, copper and steel metal clay) - such an exciting medium is its ability to be textured easily. Everything from rubber stamps to found objects can be used to impress wonderful details into your designs, which become pure silver / fine silver (.999 silver), .900 silver (in the case of PMC Pro), 22k gold, bronze, copper or steel metal after being fired. You can also texture dry metal clay by carving, filing, molding, and other texturing techniques.
This lens provides loads of ideas for creating interesting and intricate textures in metal clay. Your imagination is the limit!
