Enameling Success


The challenge for this pendant were tough to work through in one day.  The awful torch fired enamel turned out brown and dull.  The "I'm not giving up" kiln version is better. Whew, ok, I won't throw it out so......now to create the bezel or backing.  This usually would take me days drawing up thumb sketches, debating which I preferred, doubting, etc.  This time I drew up two ideas and jumped in. I had to complete it today. Of course I had to make it more difficult than it needed to be, so I repeated the exact triangle cutout spacing from the enameled piece onto the back.
