natural mandalas












































I made all the individual parts for each of these rings, they were incredibly time consuming to make. I cracked one of the stones in the spiralled/green onyx ring just as I was finishing setting it, I managed to remove the cracked stone and replace it but the bezel was slightly damaged so I don't think I'll sell that ring. I'm looking forward to making some pieces now that don't consist of so many little pieces that need to be soldered together in a symmetrical pattern!

I'll be listing these in my Etsy store on Tuesday morning (although I may not be able to part with the first ring!).

today


On my bench







On my daughter's sewing table







On my bed







In the kitchen (cooking in 3D)








In the garden








In the mailbox





On the side of the road





At the beach

I should have the rings on my bench finished and in my etsy store by Monday :)
