I love the Viking weave with the fine wire building up form and mass.

(Honorable Mention – Jewelry / Metalsmithing)
These copper earrings have been rolled with a lace texture and embellished with sterling silver beads. Doming them gave them dimension. The hardest part of making these was getting the beads to stay in place while soldering them.

(1st Place – Jewelry / Metalsmithing)
These earrings are made of sterling silver and real moss. Triangular shapes were cut out of the metal with extra width on the sides so that I could bend them to form a triangular box. Hammering the sides was the hardest part to make sure that I got the desired shape.
