After seeing many blogposts of 'My creative space' on several blogs, I finally gave in and decided to play along. As we are the two of us I had to change it in 'Our' instead of 'My' but further then that I will play among kootoyoo's guide lines. We have a new 'toy', a jewelry polisher/ tumbler. As we have many many vintage supplies this week mum has been having huge fun with it. We are doing our own things while the fairies are busy with polishing all the darkened metals!
Here it is, the little piece of magic. Simple but so hard working :) The round part just turns and turns while the soapy water and the shot are brushing against the metals.
And here the result, shiny and as good as new (maybe even better), yaay!
You can show your workspace too or explore other's at kootoyoo's blog!

WOW, that Machine dos wonders! Great, maybe I should get one:) But I do believe it is hard work polishing each Piece...:)
Mhh... I came back because I can't remember wether I did comment. Hahah... my brain is useless when it's hot!
And I wanted to ask - there are tiny metal bits jumping in that thing? And that way it gets polished?
Yes, indeed, Renate!
There are stainless steel balls and nail shaped things in it, and then water and a polisher soap. The steel is doing most of the work while the tumbler is turning around. Very simple system but very awesome :)
Wow - now you impress me even more. That is just soo cool!
It's great u have that machine now. It does make the dull look so glam.
wonderful result! my father has one of those machines. maybe I should ask him for a small gift as I don't think he uses it any more.
Now there is some serious magic!
WOW! It's like magic. Now I wonder what you will create with those sparkling clean pieces!
Super that you decided to join 'my creative space' :) I can't wait to see more of your nifty space in future! Looks a fun machine to play with! :)
Wow, I've never seen one of those before as I'm not a jeweler but do have many friends that are. It's so awesome to learn something everyday even if it's not what I do! That is what is so great about my Houston Art Group called Houston Artisans, so much of a variety of things people can make and I really love getting to know how thier art pieces are made.
Fabulous!
Linda :)
Wooo toys!
Actually, I kind of like them better without the polishing.. lol
I need that a jewelry polisher/ tumbler - now I am envy..in a good way, of course..you need it to make your beautiful jewelry!
LOL Ana, they are very shiny now but will get matt after a while, they really look dirty without a good cleaning job :)
Now I want a tumbler too...
I didn't even know that this kind of machine existed, lol! Looks nifty but I'm a bit like Ana, I like old & muddy ones better;)
Lovely rings!
ooh what fun! love the result!
A tumbler is great to have! I have one myself and it is great to know that the machine can do the job while youself are resting.. umm mean work on other things :)
