yep, it's that time again

time again for etsymetal's monthly blog carnival.
this month we were challenged to pick our favorite ring from the current ring a day pieces.
how unfair!!!!!
i have been so inspired, impressed, and amused.
i have been introduced to new and old talent.
i have been awed at some of the projects
and some of the alternative materials that have been made beautiful.
but, i did decide to narrow it down to two of my absolute favs:


shannon, of rubygirl, has been sandcasting lego pieces.
this is my favorite so far.
i am not sure whether i have legos on the brain because of my five year old
or because i am so impressed with these fun pieces.



danielle, of daniellejewelry, always does esquisite work.
i have been lusting over her rose cut diamond and leaf rings for a while now.
but this new ring has me absolutely amazed at her vision and talent.
the wonderfully organic piece is simply breathtaking.

Stacey, thank you so much for your kind words about my work! This project has really been invigorating (and a little distracting) for me!

i know what you mean.
i find that i am too distracted to get any real work done on many days.
