Wordless Wednesday – Sea Urchin

Sea Urchin
This sea urchin was mostly dead when I found it a few months ago. I used it as a test animal to check conditions in my aquarium.

Jewelrymaking Projects
When I’m not setting things on fire or making them glow (or writing about those things) I play around with a couple of creative hobbies. One of those hobbies is making jewelry. I’ve noticed that About.com’s Beadwork site is available… I’ve always wished it was possible to write more than one ‘About’ site, because that one has always interested me. However, since I’m very much devoted to the Chemistry site, I went with a different format for posting free patterns and tutorials. I’ve got one page that lists them all. Proceeds from advertising on that page go to Big Cat Rescue, one of my favorite charities. If you’re into making jewelry and have any particular tutorials or project types you’d like to see added, shoot me a note and I’ll get started on it.
