Almost Wordless Wednesday

This was my soldering exercise this month ... I wanted to see if I could solder all the tiny loops (23 gauge silver) at the top of the hearts without melting the hearts into blobs!

Hearts are all my lampwork/flamework.

Come check out this piece and the other entries for The Starving jewelry Artists Feb Challenge....
February's challenge is to make something that you love, that represents love, for Valentine's Day.

  1. It looks like you managed it very well. Something I am reluctant to try for fear of cracking the bead/s.
    Any tips??

  2. Beads are wire wrapped heart links are soldered. NO flame anywhere near those beads after the were annealed!
