My shop is a mess

Jul 30, 2007 10:39

Hello Lovlies~
I am still in full 'production' mode.
I have a huge casting day today.
I spent most of the weekend making multiple waxes with my wax injector and rubber molds.
It all goes well with casting today, I should be in good shape as far as my goals for NOTOCON.
Because I make everything myself, there are some designs I will only have time to ( Read more... )

I delicately cropped everything to only show the tabletop work areas....in reality everything outside of the box was truly too messy to show.....lol....Gah.

I am interested in a heart with ruby and stitches! It may need a smidge of extra length since I have a large neck.
(can you ping me at jessicamelusine@livejournal.com and let me know how much it so I can bring the $?:))

Certainly! I will email you the info within a couple days (at work now).
Good choice ; ) That is one of my favorites!

Thank you for asking~ That's not a silly question at all. I had originally found you on 'wigmakers' LJ community and thought your work was so spectacular I had to keep an eye on your goings on.

I work full-time as a goldsmith and jewelry designer for a custom jewelry store. In my non-work time, I make my own jewelry in my home studio (www.beegirlmetal.com). What you see in this LJ post are several pieces in production mode. From original piece, to mold, to duplicate, to newly cast. Once I duplicate my 'masters', I have to file, sand, solder parts on, set stones and polish.

I really love making fake hair too. I am working toward fully combining my metal skills with fake hair-making. I have registered a domain for my hair art (www.lunatechhair.com)...which for now, will give you a link to my myspace. In the future, I intend to have the hair website function as a gallery. I really don't have the time to be a full-time fake hair seller.
