Botanical Disk Slide Pendants

Two more weeks until show time, and I'm winding down production of pieces. Today I took inventory, and will have a nice variety of things I think. After the festival I will continue to explore more chain ideas and variations on the Botanical Disks - Pendants and Earrings. The acid etching absolutely lends itself to botanical themes, and I love that process. I have started adding hand engraving to the backs for fun. I have worked at sharpening my gravers correctly, and when they are done correctly, I could cut all day. So satisfying!

We are enjoying the strawberry patch behind the studio. Good thing the plants seem to love creeping charlie - both are thriving!
