Bueller. Bueller... (work with me here. Have you seen the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off?)Yes class, Cu is the symbol for Copper. Okay, school has been out a long time for me and I admit it - I had to look it up. But I honestly loved when we studied about Chemicals and their symbols in class.
Soooo, as you can see I've added a new metal to my shop. And what is is pray tell?
Put your hand down Petunia. Yes, I know you ALWAYS know the answer.
Class? Class? ClaaaaAAAAAssss!

You guessed it. Copper! Pure natural copper.
I'll be creating several of my handcrafted findings that I already make (and then some) with Copper as well. It is so very pretty and can be as organic, rustic, southwestern or elegant as you want it to be. I did not realize how enjoyable it is to work with. Nice on my wrists and...
Johnny sit down and quit pulling Susie's pony tail!
Oh and yes, I'm playing around with different oxidizing techniques as well. Above is my Antiqued Finish and...
Barnaby! That is NOT where a test tube goes! Take that out of your nose right now young man!
Anyway, I have more oxidizing to play with and look forward to playing around with it.
Well, class is just about over and I'm turning gray here, so I'm going to dismiss class early and ....

Good move. I love copper ALWAYS. I have it all over my house. I need to bead!
You've done it again! I can't decide if I like copper or silver better...I like them equally, it just depends on my mood.
Yay! I've been waiting for the copper!! Love it.
very, very nice... and i like the oxidized a great deal! it's funny, i was going to suggest you check out vintaj brass wire too... that has a great chocolate brown color and i have been working with some of those components... would be nice to have a rocki touch on the findings, the ear wires they offer are so basic and blah! yes, i am spoiled by you! great job, but who could ever doubt you?
I love them all but my fav is for sure the Wild West!!! The copper is awesome :-) Oh...and so are you. LOL ;-)
