It's a lot easier than I thought it would be too. I am not mechanically inclined but was able to pick up the technique fairly easily...though it was probably more of a testament to Charlene's teaching skills than my soldering ability. ;o) Now all I need is practice, practice, practice. And a soldering iron, stand, glass casings etc. LOL
This was my first charm to create. Charlene thinks the first project is easiest if it's not an inchie & she's right. Isn't the image she provided just gorgeous?
After, doing teh above beveled piece, I created the little cherub inchie below. Not bad for a beginner if I do say so myself.

Love your soldered pieces, they looks so sweet and great.
I do a little solder myself, but not enough, just bought 1 kg. solder without lead in, so it is just to start--together with all the other things I want-and have to do, having a shop....
Happy easter.

Those look GREAT! I would have never thought that you are a beginners. Very pretty choices for images, too.
How cute and what fun! That is something I would love to learn how to do :)
These are charming! I'd love to learn to do this!
They're beautiful! So delicate and precious!
Have you used mica yet instead of glass? I just bought some mica from Stampington and can't wait to use it. I'm still thinking about what kind of project!

Took a class a couple of years ago, have all the equipment but don't feel confident enough. With all my other hobbies it's been sitting in the back of my mind.
You were a GREAT STUDENT!!!!!!!! It was so much fun to get together. Sorry I am late on getting to this post. Hubby & I both had a terrible cold last week & I have just not been around much. HUGS! Charlene
Lookie how pretty they turned out! You are a natural. And Charlene is a wise teacher, the itty bitty ones are really hard to master, especially for a new learner. Reckon you're hooked now? ~ Angela
Cami, those are fabulous!!!! Who would have guessed you hadn't been doing it for some time?!? Not me!
