Behind the Scenes: My Heart Ring

This week's afternoons and evenings have been full of prep for our next event: POOL Trade Show! I have been hunched over my jeweler's bench heating, hammering, and heart-making the hours away. It gets repetitive and each piece requires it's own care/attention, but I like it because I get in a zone and happy hearts are created. Here are a few "behind the scenes" shots of my last few days.


Attaching the band to the heart.

Finished products!

I completed 40 rings and 40 stud earrings tonight! Now to assemble necklaces, label rings, package earrings... and about 100 other things to-do. Wish me luck!!

Hope your week has been good :)
