Embedding Wire into Sterling Metal Clay

I totally love the new sterling clay! The idea that I can embed sterling posts for earrings or pearls or other attachments is just so appealing.

These are the latest sterling earrings in my collection, with double leaf-textured leaves, coil/snake stems and embedded sterling wire posts. 2 1/2" long. Strong, sturdy, work-hardened! With the glow of sterling that is so much warmer than fine silver.
