Back it up Mom

All the elements in making this necklace were coming together nicely today. However, I found myself hesitating, staring at it, then putting it down.

Twice I sat on the chilly cement bench (not long enough to get piles as my mother warned) in front of our Vermont shop and ate peanut butter Ritz crackers while pondering the necklaces design.

Mid afternoon our daughters came into the shop and “oooh’d” and “aaaah’d” over the piece but also hesitated over the design.

I realized the piece just wasn’t right and the three of us mulled over how to improve it. The girls input was perfect and exactly what the piece needed to move from really nice to fantastic!

I will “back it up” and make the improvements we settled on, then put up an image when it is finished.

Thanks girls, love you

Mom
