My first bracelet and earrings

When I first saw the instructions for this set, I thought that I would never be able to make it. However, I bucked up and went to the craft store to purchase the necessary materials and tools. I bought a simple tool kit for $15 and a role of copper wire for $3.

Here is what I made.



This took me approximately 10 hours. It was definitely a learning curve. My darling boyfriend even showed me how to use the pliers correctly. :)

I think my first pieces are very pretty. I've worn them to work and people notice them right away. One individual even asked me if I sold them. This is one of my goals, even if it's just one set.
