I was going through some old photos and found these salt & pepper shakers I made over 2 years ago. www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=5317669
As soon as I saw them I thought "Hey! Cupcakes!" I thought a single sugar shaker would make more sense than S&P.

Ok, here's the story on this. Flash back to last November. My company held it's end of year/Christmas/Holiday party. This also coincided with our company quarterly all-hands. They passed out these sheets of magnets with our "defining qualities" or some such on them. Signs of the same are literally plastered all over the offices. Anyway, as the night (read, drinking and socializing) went on, Jenny (on the right in this picture) decided that what we really needed to do was to cover our VP's truck with them. Actually, it may not have been her idea. I can't remember. But she's a go-getter, especially with a few beers in her, and spent about an hour collecting these magnets from everyone in the joint. Somehow Brad (the VP) got wind of it. Brad's a good guy. He's smart and good at his job and just a wee bit tightly wound. He walked over and said, "If there's a single magnet on my truck, you're fired." And then laughed. We think. Then he gave Jenny a twenty if she'd put them on someone else's truck. But he wasn't there, so Jenny pocketed the 20. She's holding it in some of the other photos. And then, we waited... and waited... and waited. Linda, Brad's admin, came to us today and told us that he would be in a 90 minute meeting with his boss and a bunch of other folks. It was a catered lunch meeting in a conference room on the interior of the building. No windows. And a guarantee he wouldn't leave that room for an hour and a half. Now, here's the other good part. A few weeks ago, Brad decided to start a weekly contest to submit photos/videos of people having fun at work. Brad and a representative from HR choose the best photo and it becomes a caption contest. So naturally this is what we submitted.
After we took the photos, we removed the magnets. Well, most of them...
Brad came by and took his $20 back.
I don't know why she reminds me of Blondie here. She doesn't have carved lips, it's done with paint ;-)
The one on the right has a plastic bead and is 22 gauge gold plated copper wire. The center one is 18 gauge and the recycled glass bead.
I decided to make Hexies with my fabric scraps. Not sure what I will end up making. Or when. But eventually it's going to become something.
Old photo from 2004 - miniature frame building. Brass tubing, cut & mitered with dremel, soldered with a pen torch and lead-free electrical solder. Alligator clips for heatsinks and occasional jigging duties. The cooked flux hadn't been cleaned off the seat-tube junction yet.
Going through old photos I found these again - in 2008 I'm going to try building an approx. 1/6th scale porteur model.
... for Roz/Rockymountainroz - initial make-up preview. She has a very natural face-up in browns and pinks, sunkissed nose and cheeks, and very light freckles across the bridge of her nose and cheeks. Her lids and eyemech aren't done yet, and we'll be changing some chips to go with her new coloring ... so this is just a first preview! <3
