Well, everyone at the day job has had an upper respiratory infection, I hoped that since I got a flu shot this year (my first ever) that I'd take a pass.
But no.
I have a cough. Thankfully the daytime and nighttime medicines are doing their thing.
But here are some pretty shiny little things I made last weekend.
I'm having fun making faux crown jewels.
I guess they could be for anytime, not just holidays and special occasions.
I've seen this sign around, it says "It's Good to be Queen" - and wearing these makes me feel like queen for a day.
Even with a cough.

Beautiful! I like the first one the best.
Hope you get rid of that cough quickly!
The sparlies work really well with the aged pewter. Nice contrast. Get well soon.
Those treasures were definitely unearthed in a French catacombs someplace, weren't they? I love them! Great sparkles and the pewter is such a great anchor for them. Wonderful.
Enjoy the day!

I hope you get feeling better. I love your work.
Lynn,
These are really looking like ancient Roman or Byzantine pieces of jewelry. While stumbling around on ebay one day I found this dealer. He's auctioning medieval-Roman era parts and pieces of everyday (metal)life, they have been digging up in the old Soviet blocked countries. I thought of you when I saw it, because your pewter is looking as good as the real antiquities!! :) Here's his site check it out if you like perhaps you can gleam a bit to translate to your work:

I hope your cough doesn't develop any further. And for your cough try a nice warm sniffer of brandy with a bit of honey and lemon!! Works like a charm!!

Oh no Lynn, feel better. Hope it doesn't go too deep in to the old lungs. LOVE these pieces, they are soooo cute. Well done. Take care, Riki
I had an URI and I had to have two rounds of antibiotics. Get to the Dr. asap for the meds. Hope you get well soon!
On another note, I just love all of your work! I wish I could buy them all.
Thank you, I must have been meant to be an archaeologist or a forger - or both!
