Freeform Pearl Ring
Eile tegin ühe väga põneva investeeringu - ostsin nimelt ühe Eni Oken'i õpetustest. Olen tema töid juba kaua imetlenud, aga aukartusest pole veel julgenud tema stiiliga katsetada. Nagu tavaliselt, jõudsin koju alles 10 ajal õhtul, ning ilma õpetust järele proovimatta poleks arvatavasti tundigi magada saanud. Nojah, aega kulus selle sõrmusega pusimise peale ca 5 tundi, nii et magada sain kokkuvõttes ikka vaid mõne tunni :D Tööd alustades avastasin, et kogu oma viimaste kuude kokkuostetud kraami hulgas pole mul selleks sõrmuseks ühtegi sobivat kivi ega helmest. Niisiis tuligi leppida väiksema lapiku pärliga, mis tegi töö käigu tunduvalt keerulisemaks, sest pidin erineva suuruse tõttu natukene improviseerima. Esimese töö kohta kukkus ta mul enam vähem hästi välja, aga tegelikult pole ma üldse rahul. Seetõttu tuiskasingi esimese asjana täna kohe poodi ja ostsin paar sobivamat kivi (labradorid :D ), et saaks õhtul kohe jällegi katsetama hakata.
I made one very exciting investment last night - I bought one of Eni Oken's tutorials. I have been admiring her work for quite some time now, but out of awe never dared to try her style. I got home around 10 as usual, and would not have been able to sleep without trying this tutorial. It took me nearly 5 hours to complete it, which didn't leave too much time for sleep. When I started with this ring, I discovered that among all the beads that I have I was unable to find an appropriate stone or bead for this project. So I had to settle with a much smaller coin shape pearl, which made work more difficult, because I had to improvise due to a different size of bead. For my first try, it's not bad, but I'm not satisfied at all. Therefore I headed to the store first thing this morining to pick up a more suitable stone (a labradorite :D) so I could give it another try this evening.

Väga kena sõrmus! Kui suur see pärl on? Näeb igatahes väga armas välja! Millisest poest sa neid labradoriite ostsid ja miks sa neid ei näita? :P
Pärl on umbes 9-10mm. Labradoriite (mitte küll helmestena) ostsin Loitsukellerist ning ühest teisest poest vanalinnas, mille nime ei mäleta/ei tea. See asub Uuel tänaval kohe ühe hirmus logudik maja kõrval. Näidata polnud aega, just paar tundi tagasi ostsin :) aga eks siis saab näha, kui juba sõrmuses on. Kusjuures, kesklinna Juveeli poest saab nüüd juba 6 erinevas suuruses hõbetraati väga soodsa hinnaga (võrreldes meie kohalike netipoodide pakkumistega)
