ring a day, jan 8





I began the ring-a-day project yesterday that was started by nina dinoff at the beginning of january. the only parameter is that what you make should fit around your finger- materials and techniques are completely open. my added rules are that it should be quick (under an hour - a half hour is ideal!) and I want to use my scraps as often as possible- there are loads of interesting-but-abandoned ideas buried in my silver scrap bowls.


also, I'm imagining the execution of the ring-a-day project will become more like a seven-rings-in-a-week project.


the first ring is copper, stamped with faceted stamps I made last summer at penland, and scored, folded, and patinaed.
