Welcome to day ONE of my 2nd annual March One-a-day jewelry challenge! I've been so excited about it. I woke up this morning like it was Christmas and couldn't wait to get started. I hope you'll follow along with me. A word of warning -- I just got a new tool that helps me corrugate metal. I will try not to use it on absolutely everything... but it is so. much. fun. I go a little crazy over new tools anyway, but this one has me giggling. So here you go, submission for day one -- a foldform cuff, chased and corrugated. But don't stop here. Enter the giveaway!
To enter:
1. Post a comment on any One-a-day blog post (current or previous day) during March 2012. Tell me what you think of a piece and why, and you're automatically entered. Comments must be added before midnight on March 31st, US ET. 2. Include your email address with your post. 3. Please also like my Facebook page, here. The drawing On April 1st, I'll draw a random name from among those who commented. Your name will be assigned a number (chronologically, based on comment order) and the winning number will be generated from http://www.random.org. One entry per person -- your first comment will enter you, but you're welcome to comment as often as you like! If you are outside the U.S., I welcome your entries! If you win, I will charge a bit of shipping, but only the amount that's higher than standard U.S. postage. A little about the challenge I will create and post a new piece of jewelry (or accessories) every day this month. They will be new, improved, or re-interpreted designs; and/or, they will be skill-building pieces in areas that I need to practice. If you want to see what last year's One-a-day challenge was like, check out my home page and scroll to the bottom, or watch a quick 3-minute video recap here. See you tomorrow!

I love this cuff. I need to get out my corrugating tool & play with it again. Like the 2 different textures you created. Very nice.

Sue, I really love your jewelry. So interesting and pretty. I like the pendant from day two, it has really nice curbs and I like the grooves.

I absolutely love this cuff...I would snatch it up if I saw it at an art show! Just started to do some fold forming and I am looking into a small rolling mill...now I'll have to look at a corrugating machine

The cuff is awesome! I just got a tube wringer today so I see some corrugation in my future. Aren't tools addictive?

I love this cuff! It reminds me of animal prints or gladiators or African Zulu warriors. I love this path!

I believe that I've left comments before. I really love and enjoy seeing your work. Yesterday's "Tree of Life" was lovely! I loved the use of color in your work, but I'm also drawn to the bracelet that I asked to see. It's the one I pinned. Anyway, it's all good! It's exciting to see your skills and creativity bloom!
