Make Me a Butterfly


This is one of many projects at the bench this week.
Agate butterfly wings to become a pendant.
When finished, this piece heads to the
Salty Teacup in Portland, OR.


Recycled silver body and head.
The sterling wing bases were hand pierced.


Ready to solder.


Soldering completed!


Freshly soldered prongs.

If all goes well, I'll have the finished piece ready to post tomorrow evening.
