My Creative Space - Finished Brooch

It's so exciting to finish something, isn't it? Yes the journey is fun, but oh wow, the feeling of reaching a great destination is pretty cool sometimes too!



I had a lot of help from my teacher but I've really got the proud face at the moment :)



My first fully completed silversmithing piece :)


For my lovely friend Alain.

    catching up today on all i'd missed and Kylie your finished brooch is gorgeous! i bet Alain is thrilled to bits. just wonderful. ♥

    pea ess: thanks for the compliment about my super old, faded tattoo! i almost forget it's there, it's been so long now but i do really like how over the years it's softened into an airbrushed appearance. thanks again for noticing.
