earrings slowly made for someone i love.

the design, printed out and the sheet of (probably antique) sterling silver.
roughly cut out the main shapes, filed the edges.
drilled out the inside shapes.
filed the inside shapes.
after all shapes are cut and filed, i sand the silver for hours.
i used finer and finer git paper, ending with a metal polishing sheet.
drilled holes for the hand shaped silver eyelets.
pieces are linked together and...
voila!
