The urge to learn

Making jewellery with stones is something I've been wanting to do for a long time (I'm talking about jewellery with (bezel) set stones, not beaded jewellery), but for some reason, I had convinced myself that it would be really difficult. Last autumn I was determined to learn, but then my metal smith teacher had an accident and wasn't able to teach. I did manage to make a ring, a pendant and a pair of earrings (finished the earrings 2 days ago at home), and realized that it's no way near as complicated as I thought. So - I'm going to get some thin silver sheet and a tool that I'm still missing, and start practicing. Hopefully I'll be able to really start making this type of jewellery soon!

(The ring mentioned above...)

Although, it's probably going to take a couple of weeks before I can get started.

My son had his first vaccination yesterday, so I'm taking care of him today. Poor baby, he was in such a good mood up until he got the injections! Yesterday evening he had a bit of a fever and was very tired. Today he's doing better but he's still not quite his old self. They said that the side effects could last up to 24 hours without it being anything wrong, so I'm waiting it out. Soon again he'll be the happy baby he normally is!
Friday my little sister and her boyfriend are coming to visit, and after that I'm going to have a lot of family over for the next couple of weeks, plus we're going on vacation. BUT I hope to get around to it soon!
