I have grabbed bits of time during the week, and a little today, to progress the stash of word-leaves and tokens for gifting that I'm working on.
As part of the process of making the tokens for gifting I decided to use some quite thick and hard silver-plated nickel silver to make peace pieces to go on our metal 'christmas' tree. The photo above is the set of nine that will be used I think.
In the end I have made 66 concave triangular shaped pieces.

I started to grind and polish all of them today; but only managed about 20. More photos of the peace pieces for our tree.

We will see what the weekend brings.
Love the way you make these.
ReplyDeleteP - I like being able to send a few tangible bits of peace and kindness out into the world - just a little thing but it may help folk think about peace and kindness a bit. Go well. B
