Happy Birthday Cindi! (sorry it's spelled wrong!)
Julie Campbell and I in class.
Etched pieces made by Julie in class tonight. Great work Julie!
Tonight I taught an acid-etching on metal class at Bead Haven. I really like this class. I mean, hammering on metal and submerging things in a caustic vat of acid, what could be better? Seriously, if you haven't tried the acid-etching thing yet, you really should give it a try. The acid that is used for brass, copper and nickel silver is ferric chloride, a fairly weak acid that is very safe if used with care.
Tonight was also my excellent friend Cindi's birthday. You have to love a person who coaxes you out for margaritas right before you're supposed to teach a class, a class using a torch! Here's to you Cindi! You are one of the youngest spirited people that I know and I'm glad to call you my friend!
