The 2017
Muffin Tin Challenge has come to an end. I've managed to complete nine pieces to knock myself out of the post holiday slump. We've had a round of big storms here in NorCal over the past 10 days with torrential rains that have lead to localized flooding. Thankfully nothing major in my area, other than some floating gophers which were rescued, dried out, and returned to the wild.
Some of these are pieces I had started at various times throughout the past several months and not completed, others are brand new from start to finish.
A big thanks to Heather Powers from HumbleBeads for this challenge!! It's the perfect way to start off the jewelry making year!
