I love purple, so the rarity of finding a lavender shade of sea glass was just amazing, and while wrapping it in sterling wire, I managed to break off a corner (there was a "fault line" running where it broke when I started wrapping it). I guess I will use supper glue and some more wrapping to hide the fix when I wear it around.

I ruined a masterpiece!
I was working on a pendant for me... wanted to call it my new masterpiece and I have managed to break a piece of sea glass.

Oh, too bad! It's really pretty so I hope you can salvage it. I've been meaning to ask you what weight wire you use for wrapping. I'd like to try wrapping some beads.
ReplyDeleteAw that is a shame. Looks like you were so close to finishing. I hope you can salvage! It is too pretty a piece to disgard.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is frustrating. I hope the glue works...
