Birthday Cake for my Nephew!

Today and part of yesterday I spent my time making this cake for my nephew's birthday. He'll be one, so happy first birthday to baby Harold.

The Ring 2: more soldered things

Here's my latest creation,

a new soldered ring.

I think it turned out better this time.

And lastly because no solder day is complete without ending up with a pile of stones...

Sometimes you just have to try things to learn if they work or not...

Soldering About...

Here are a few of my first soldering projects that I have been working on.

The first charm I made was the one with the face. The second was the Eiffel Tower.

Here you can see the back sides of the charms.

And lastly the ring, which was just plain playing around. I have no size for it and it actually fits me kind of loose I think if I were to make more I would probably do it a little different.

I am excited to try some other projects with these flat back glass marbles. The wheels in my head are turning as I write this. So I think it's back to the soldering table for me...
