    Some chain maille I just finished

    I've been on a serious jewelry making kick lately. I just finished this bracelet. It's Japanese Lace 12 in Two made out of copper. I'm going to post pics of a few other pieces I made as well, once I get around to taking pics.

    I love that! Is that whole thing made out of jump rings? Tedious indeed!

    Yep, it's all jump rings. I should have counted...I'm actually kind of curious as to how many rings it took. Usually I'm not too patient, but for some reason I can sit and make chain maille all day. It's funny, I don't even wear jewelry much and I'm ending up with a ton of it. Everyone I know has ended up with some jewelry as a gift I think...have to do something to justify spending money on jump rings, lol.

    Here is a pic of the first bracelet I ever made:



    Here's a watch I made the band for. It's probably my favorite project so far.

    Thanks! I've actually been thinking about setting up an account on Etsy or something to try and sell some. I like making it so much, if I could help cover the cost of materials then I could make more and it would be awesome.
