ChickyD aka Debra says:Thank you. I’m back for a little while. Spent 2 hours working on some Japanese chain mail earrings. So far, I’ve spent 4 1/2 TEDIOUS hours on the FIRST pair, and they’re STILL not finished. This is definitely a ONE OF A KIND kind of thing. I will NEVER make another pair! At least, I don’t think so…

Yes, I will post a pick of the chain mail earrings, but it may take a while. There are 180 jump rings in them! What was I thinking?! Hopefully, I’ll finish the 1st one tonight…

On May 08, 2009 at 2:33 pm #
ChickyD aka Debra says:Not crosseyed, but my shoulders spend lots of time up around my ears, and I seem to have to hold my tongue a certain way, if you know what I mean.

Classy Chick JbyJill says:Ooooohhh!! I love it! It looks just like the beach!!
On May 10, 2009 at 12:04 am #
ChickyD aka Debra says:Thank you! I want to make another one of those necklaces w. black Czech glass. This one is not that hard.
The earrings would have been easier if I had used bigger jump rings. Guess I’m just a glutton for punishment!
On May 10, 2009 at 12:05 am #
Happy Chick aka Harriet says:This is great! Love the pictures, but you are either braver or tons more patient than I am.

ChickyD aka Debra says:I think I’m just stubborn. The earrings were a class I took on Tuesday. I never noticed all the jump rings when I signed up for the class. I just thought, “Oh, COOL earrings…”. Yeah, right… Well, I had black teardrops picked out. Then we started working on them, and I thought, “Hmmm….these will probably be one-of-a-kind. Maybe I should pick a crystal that goes with EVERYTHING.” So, I switched to clear. lol!
Actually, I think I might make another pair. BUT, I’m using WAY bigger jump rings. lol
