How a simple piece of metal becomes a beautiful trinket......
As soon as the precious metal hits Heidi's doormat she already has plans for its journey to become a bangle, bracelet, pendant, earrings or ring. The starting point for any piece following the design is sawing, closely followed by thoughtful hammering, filing, sanding, soldering and finally a good polish in her tumbling machine.
Of course the journey does not end there, once a trinket is sold, it goes off into the world on a different journey all of its own. We don't always get to know where our trinkets have ended up, but we hope that it is bringing the lucky recipient as much joy and pleasure as we had creating it.
