Mid-Week Production Run #TinaTang #Jewelry

This time of the week always yields little treasures.  I stop by my production company and also the casters to see if anything is ready.  My production company finally finished polishing the heart hoops!  Naturally I need to "test drive" them.  Here I am wearing them:

They are big and light!  I think you will love them as much as I do.
These are what the hoops look like without the accessory of a human being:

I like the organic handmade feel of these hoops I did in wax.
I'll be posting them on the website tonight.

Do remember the post here when I picked up the pieces from the engraver? From the engraver, the pieces went to the caster to make a mold then into multiples.  When I stopped by today, the casters finished casting the Nautilus shell series into silver, ready to be polished.  The next step, I bring these raw pieces to my production company to blacken and polish.  Most of these pieces will transform into necklaces.

The really large shells with the rope detail will be hoop earrings.  I cannot wait to pick these finished pieces up later on this week!  Of course, I hope to test drive them over the weekend.  Mustang car or new earrings?  Which would I rather test drive first?....That's a tough choice.

Step on in the production process:  Pick up from casters.
