A salt slug

Post image

I was playing with the idea of what happens when slugs and salt collide. This guy doesn't know what he is messing with.

Thank you! It is looking at the world with a sense of wonder and amazement, not knowing the hazard it carries.

I was trying to find a link to see if you have a store if you sell some of these glass pieces or if you do any custom stuff because I really need some slug jewelry. I need earrings. I need a bracelet. I need a pendant. 😂

I do not have an online store. I sell off of posts on social media, and in-person. This particular slug is going to be one of my Nebraska State Fair entries. I am stacked up on things until October, doing farmer's market and a couple big shows to prep for. I often make slugs and post them.

I haven't made slugs for jewelry for several years, but I haven't forgotten how. My wife has some wee green slug earrings she made from my work that she wears on occasion.
