Project Name & Page Link: Clementine Cake
Brief Description: I picked up a bag of clementines about 2 weeks ago, and they weren’t great for eating out of hand. A little soft, and lots of seeds. Since I didn’t want them to go to waste, I made a cake with them! To be honest, I went with this recipe because the citrus & olive oil bundt cake I usually use calls for yogurt, and I was out. Since I had everything called for in this recipe, that’s what I went with. It certainly tastes fine, but it is a bit drier than my other favorite recipe, and it stuck to the pan a bit. As my husband said though “It’ll eat.” Random fun fact: while it’s hard to see in the picture, the icing was bright peachy orange from the tangerine juice.

Project Name & Page Link: Repairing Pearl Jewelry
Brief Description: My cousin sent me her favorite necklace and earrings which were in need of repair. I forgot to get a before pic, but the necklace crimp ends had broken, so they couldn’t hold a clasp or clasp ring. And the earrings had lost one earwire, and the other was squished. So I removed the old crimp ends, reglued the strands of monofilament, added new crimps and a new clasp. Then took apart the earrings, and replaced the frewshwater pearls onto sterling headpins, added bead caps to replace the old faux yellow gold beads that topped them, and added sterling earwires.
