Bill is not one to wear a lot of jewelry, he likes it, but is not used to wearing much other than a watch and a wedding ring. So I made him this bracelet for Christmas. The lapis is a meaningful family stone. Looking at it, you would think that was a slam-dunk to solder, but au contraire...the smaller section that wraps around the wrist would heat up faster than the wider section and start moving around. Oy. I learn something with every project. But the end result is nice, don't you think?
