Oh So Riveting

I have been playing in the studio again today trying to get some more sample pieces done for when I teach my riveting class tomorrow. We will be doing three types of rivets; wire rivets, tube rivets, and telescoping rivets (a type of tube rivet.) I actually have one opening in my class tomorrow night if anyone is interested.

Also, the Tube Setting classes are so popular, I have changed the schedule for the 27th and we will be doing tube rivets one more time. I have at least one opening in that class. Class will go from 6:00 - 9:00 pm.

Here is what I did today. The beautiful beads are by my really good friend Laura Crtichfield of Chestnut Ridge Designs .







The cord is made with the finest Greek Leather. Metals used are sterling silver and copper. The necklace measures 19" long.

    I liked that 19" long necklace a lot. It really looks nice. It’s a good thing that you will be teaching three types of rivets; wire rivets, tube rivets, and telescoping rivets in the next day’s class and you are doing homework for that. It will definitely help the students to learn quickly and you to teach them easily. Please convey my congratulations to your friend Laura for making those beautiful beads. I too have an interest to learn ornament designing from you and I will contact you soon for that.
