This is lovely work.
I have tried my hand at many a crafting and art task in recent months, including a spot of jewellery making. Because of my epic fails I can appreciate how very tricky it is, and how good your work is.
I do have terrible hands for intricate work, Like having 10 swollen numb sausage thumbs that are hypermobile and arthritic...
I end up frustrated and squishing the fastenings with pliers :)
Thank you! Just remember, the advantage of posting stuff online is that I can just show the result of long practice, and I can omit failures encountered on the way. As with anything, practice is key! That, and watching Youtube tutorials.
