Total Art Soul - for artists

I dont think I could deal. just doing jump rings aggravate me!

Nice choker - love the design!

I've dabbled in chainmaille; although I love the drape of the chains I just don't think it is my thing. I've made a Euro 4-n-1 (haven't quite got a handle on that) bracelet in anodized nobium and several Byzantine weave bracelets in 18g square copper and red brass - turned out beautiful.

Hmmm - been trying to attach a picture of a bracelet but no success - so will put in a link to it in my Etsy shop.

The bracelet is very pretty. I especially love the scrollwork clasp. ;>

There's a couple tricks to doing E4-1 that occasionally make life easier, and it's important to note that if your rings are above a certain AR, the ends can sortof flip around and look like they were done backwards. It took me a while to discover what was happening there, I continually thought I must have goofed it up myself, but it's just something the rings do when physics says the center of gravity is off and attempts to fix it.

Linda, make sure the image is no larger than 800x800 when you post on the forum or it won't work. If you have any other problems, just shout.

That's really beautiful Wouldn't have the patience it takes to do that chainmaille.
