I have collected a lot of ordinary stones. They mainly comes from isolated road and a pit that is in a cul-de-sac. I have lot of them. I think that now, it is time to use them. They are smoth.
Here some to gives an idea of their appearance:
They are of various sizes. The smaller ones would be perfect in earrings or just on a ring. The bigger ones will go as focal points in necklaces. I just have to decide how to preps them for the result pieces. For some projects, wirewrapping would worth a try. For the ring and earrings, I will have to think more. I don't have all the equipment for soddering. It will be an added challege. I could try to drill some rocks but it will probably be some of the bigger ones.
They may be some unexpensive rock, without any value. I don't want to make expensive jewelry with them. I just like to use what I have on hand. It also fun to takes items and hijack them in an unrelated use. Those rocks don't have any use beside being on the ground. Wearing them as jewelry would be a statement. We only give monetary value to what catch our fancy. In addition, they will makes great tribal jewelry. Nothing beat the tribal look with elements from nature. Those rocks are natural as it can be!
So, lot of experimentation ahead. Would be nice if all goes well, otherwise, I will have to adapt. Can be a fun process if the solution include tools I already have. I have a few other ideas with them. I just have to see if I can translate my ideas into reality.
