tumble time

i was gifted a tumbler for my birthday to use in my business.  i have been so excited to try it out and see the difference in my pieces after a little tumble.  well, i finally tried it out!

here is what i am using:  the lortone 3A 3lb tumbler.

i decided to try out a metal-only piece first.  the piece definitely came out shinier and full of a gorgeous luster.  however, note to amateur tumblers:  google how to keep necklace chain from getting tangled BEFORE you try it out for the first time.  boy was that chain a mess!

overall, i am VERY excited to try out more of my jewelry in this lovely machine.  this time with some tricks to keep my chain from getting all twisted-sister on me!
