Description This is something my professor doubted I could pull off.
In my experience with working on another piece of jewelry, I find that silver solder percolates between thin wires when heated to melting point. The thin wires I used for to wire-wrap into trees are from a fallen and frayed cable I found while I was on a walk. I also harvested some bowl-shaped scraps of copper, with the bigger of the two here put to use as a background. I soldered the trees and the rocks (which I melted into beads from some of the leftover wires) onto the background and worked on the brass piece, which I soldered well to prevent breaking.

Wicked job, when someone tells me it can’t be done my response is “well that just means it will take me a few minutes longer.”

I like this quote from Ali
 
Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
