The Enlightened One

Here is a little copper cuff I made the other day....I used some copper tube and hammered away. I messed up on my lettering as it is not centered on the cuff...but I like it anyway. 

What do you do with your mistakes...toss them out and start over or make do and work around it? There is a uniqueness that comes from a letter perhaps stamped backwards or different size links...whatever it is, it may be a mistake to you but not to someone else.

  3. Like the bracelet! What do I do with my mistakes? Sometimes I start over, others I just live with and don't tell anyone it is a mistake. :-D
    Have a great weekend.

  4. Lovely little cuff!
    Mistakes - it depends on what went wrong. Sometimes it can be worked with, sometimes it gets put aside - maybe for a different solution or to remain a mistake...
