And behind her little silver ring…

Tina made me this awesome gorgeous jewelry case several months ago.  I thought I had pictures of the whole thing up on the blog somewhere, but I can’t find them now.  At the time, I was wearing (and making) truckloads of beaded necklaces & earring, but I wasn’t wearing very many rings.  My fingers were a little too large at the time to wear the rings I had, and I wasn’t ambitous enough to make my own!  But now… since we took that silversmithing class together, Tina’s been going gangbusters at making these awesome silver rings.  In theory, we’re going to start selling all the crafty stuff we each do, but we’re not there yet.  So for the time being, I am adopting all of her “practice” pieces.  LUCKY ME! 

I had been keeping rings in a special box that sits at the bottom of this jewelry case, but I was losing track of everything I had, and it was getting full!  So I requested a brilliant storage method for storing rings where I could see them alll.  I didn’t think I’d get a modification to my jewelry case, but I did!  She added in two of these sections to hold rings in, so now I can see everything I have, and I can wear a few fancy silver rings every day!  I made a couple of the rings you see in this picture, but most of those are Tina’s handiwork.  Nice, huh?!  Soooo cool.
