Today mom and I went to this jewellery making class. It was so much fun. We got to make bracelets, necklaces, earrings and lots of other things to. When we got there we had to pick out 1 thing that we wanted to make. I picked a ring.
It was cool how I made it because I started with 5 small cuts of silver and then you would fire them together with some smaller pieces of silver. When you put fire on it, it would stick together. When it was still a bit hot you would push it together to make a ring. After that you would take 10 little cuts of silver and put fire on them. It would turn the silver into little balls. You would then fire the balls onto the ring. That is how the ring was made. Me and mom also decided to make matching rings like the one that I just showed you in that picture. It was to remind us of the class that we took together.
Then I also made a necklace. This is how it was made. With the thin one I stared with a cut of silver and I bent it into shape. Then we put some fire on it to make it stick together. For the thick one I started with a cut of mettle and then I drew out what shape I wanted on a piece of paper. Then I glued it to the mettle thing and I cut out the left over mettle. After that I got to cut out the middle part with a tiny saw. Then we put the fire on it again and it burnt the paper so it made a black spot on the mettle so I scraped it off. Then it was done and the way it holds them together I got a tiny cut of silver and made it into a circle. After it was all done I went to polish it. This necklace is for someone speshile. That was our class. It was really fun. Well that is it 4 now.
