I thought it would be neat to share the journey in progress in photo format of how the Dragonfly Lapel Pin came to be.
I hope you enjoy seeing the progress!
The pieces for the body and wings were measured and cut of sterling wire.
The wire ends of the body at the head were balled which will later become antenna...wings were soldered on.
Now that everything is assembled, pickled, finished out and polished, time to begin weaving!I hope you enjoy seeing the progress!

The first wing took FORRRRRRRRREVERRRRRRRR...
First wing finished and moving on to the body...Antenna formed into shape.
The second wing went MUCH quicker...WHEW!
You probably wouldn't believe how much wire was actually used in this little guy!
Perched upon a shell rose...A lovely place to rest after all that work!
