New forge. Made from a propane tank. Insulated with #8 Kaowool and coated with rutland.
You even built your own forge? Wow.


This is my propae forge, My charcoal forge is very primitive. I even have hand bellows.

baby booties... I am so many projects going on right now to distract me from my issues...
I'm doing a lot of projects, too. I should be getting a camera in March, so I'll be able to take good pictures of everything.

What if projects take multiple day steps? I am working on something every day but most of the time I have to melt about 25-40 things, shape then remelt. So most of my work takes a few days. I do make things in between so I can post very frequently ^_^

I am also clearing out a space for a torch so I can teach myself metal work which will add to the many things I make xD

Here is a fused glass butterfly wing pendant I recently finished. Made from dichroic glass:

Another fused glass creation. This time made with a vintage illustration that I have melted into the glass then wrapped with an antiqued brass wire.

It's okay if it takes multiple days. My crafts take a long time, too.
Those are beautiful. heart

Very lovely ring! How long did it take you to learn wire wrapping?

Hi Fortes! I remember you from Roliana. 3nodding

I started wire wrapping during winter break, so it's been a few months.
Honestly, there's minimal learning involved in wire wrapping. All you need are the tools, and everything else is pretty straightforward. ^_^
