WOYWW 89 . . . in the kitchen

hi everyone  at WOYWW89
i'm not actually working on my desk this week , i'm in the kitchen. . . .  not cooking!
i'm making a silver bracelet for my daughter (no2). it has been a bit scary as the silver is very expensive and i dont want to muck it up. i've only made small things before.
her boyfriend brought her a gecco bracelet when they were in minorca but all the silver came off after a while and turned her hand green. she asked me if i could replace it in pmc silver.
so far, so good as long as nobody touches it.
i am quite pleased with the geccos, i just hope that it all holds together ok and i dont break it, opps! shouldn't have said, that it's the kiss of death to tempt faith.
if you haven't seen pmc precious metal clay before , its brilliant. the special clay turns into 99% pure silver when heated with a cooks blow torch.... yes honestly,  look it up, its  a gorgeous medium to work with.
