I’m a Fool for Faux
By ornamento

I use a vibratory rock tumbler instead of sanding and I’ve gotten great results. I promise I’ll do a post on it soon.

I’m pretty sure it’s a real bracelet.
Funny that you mention this today–I pulled out the Tory Hughes book this morning for perusal later tonight. Great minds think alike (or something like that).

You’re soaking up some of the Baskin humor.
