I've been having a lot of fun in the studio using my torch and some copper wire. I made some double balled headpins (quenched in water in between torching to retain the nice hot red patina on the end) and then tried to figure out what to do with them. I had a length of braided leather that I decided to wrap them around - and here is the result - a tribal looking bracelet that can be for a man or a woman.
While I love the red patina on the end, I wanted some that were plain copper:
and then some with purple enamel on the ends:
And a couple more pennies............white with a layer of purple on the top:
..........gray with a purple layer:
...........and midnight blue with a spattering of red:
