You may or may not have seen my post this morning about Nerdy Noel Midsummer Market this Sunday and the pieces on my bench that I was working on finishing. In case you didn’t, I had mentioned that I was working on this Medusa piece when I lost my grip while using my micromotor and she flew out of my hand. I spent a good 10 minutes looking for her (yes, my “studio” is rather ahem, full.) Anyway, I decided she had just traipsed off to another dimension and hoped she would come back by the weekend.
Well.
Before I left to go do some of my other non jewelry work today, I had taken my pewter moon and sun piece out of the tumbler which is about 5 feet away and behind me. Last thing I did before I left. Had Medusa been hanging out there I would have seen her. I got home this afternoon and made another cursory look before getting back to the other pieces. No luck. I dropped the pewter back in the drum and took it to the tumbler to start it again and there Miss Traveling Medusa was. At least 5 feet away almost straight back from where I let go of her. I really hope she had a nice trip, wherever it was she was roaming around. 😳🤪🫨
