Hey Friends! In my excitement of holding my first silver coin this week, I remembered a project I worked on a few years ago. I started designing henna-style jewelry that I had poured by a local silver castor!
It was a fun adventure, however I never achieved the results that I wanted to be able to start selling them. I reached a cross-road where I had to decide if I would continue with the design process so that I could reach the quality that I desired, or to put the project on hold until I had the time and headspace to do so.
So I put the project on hold and forgot about it! And now I am re-visiting my designs and wondering...hmmmm...should I try again....and what new ideas can I now bring to the table....🤔
I’d love your thoughts and ideas! It really is a beautiful concept and it would be fulfilling to complete the dream!
Hope you have a beautiful creative day! Enjoy this gorgeous sunshine if ya in Adelaide☀️🌼🌾

I absolutely love the 2 major pieces in the first photo. Could you set stones in them? I would love them with kids birthstones (I'm a very sentimental person 😊).
Your work is always amazing ❤
Thankyou so much!!! I’m such a sentimental person too!!! Oh Amanda I found the best most beautiful coins online yesterday...now that I know you’re sentimental I’m trying to decide if I’ll message it to @mattclarke so he can surprise you with one one day (❤️🙌) or send you the link 😂😂 I think you would love them. I really want one. Hint hint Andy 🤔 I’ve always wanted amethyst as it’s my birthstone!
Oh sorry I got distracted! I think that mine could be set with stones but I’d have to talk to my castor about it :-) we could talk about a design! I’m feeling a bit like creating again.
Cheers. Message me that link, I'll take a look.
Maybe go big and enter a design for the 2019 STEEM round.
That'd be amazing, to know that your design is treasured, admired and tucked away in secret stashes all over the world.
Maybe just do a design here and there and pour up some, I'm sure there would be silver stackers here on steemit who might be interested in obtaining some :)
Good idea! It’s worth a try, and can just design when I feel like it. An experimental hobby!
Get on with it: Looks awasome! :)
P.s. You may hold more coins soon as I will be placing you in my silver draw as one of the wildcard entrants. Thanks for your nomination @harrynewman would be a good recipient.
Thankyou! I think I will! 😊
Yes I look forward to the draw!
I think these are gorgeous, you could definitely sell them online. Why not give it a red hot go if you’ve got the means :D
Fringe stall?
Thankyou 🙌 it’s something I think I’m ready to pursue again! 🌟🌟
See, I'd much rather have these than some dumb bar/coin that does nothing.
There's some stuff they make now, Precious metal clay, which acts just like regular clay, but contains bronze, copper, silver or gold. Fire it in a kiln and the clay burns away, leaving a solid metal piece.
