This copper ring was hand formed from copper electrical wire and hand hammered for a great texture. The copper has been sealed with wax but has not been lacquered so it will gain a natural patina unique to its wearer.

I discovered an easy, healthy way to make homemade potato chips! Here’s the recipe:

  • 2 or 3 Medium Russet Potatoes
  • Margarine
  • Chopped + Dried Basil Leaves

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and also pop in the baking sheet on the middle rack. Wash the potatoes thoroughly and peel. Slice width-wise into golden dollar sized pieces. Remove the baking sheet from the oven (careful — it’s hot!) and set down on the cooktop. Spread a thin layer of margarine over each side of the potato slices, and lay them on the cookie sheet. Sprinkle basil over the potatoes (a small pinch per slice) and use a potholder to return the baking sheet to the oven. Bake at 350 degrees, and turn the sheet 90 degrees after about 15-20 minutes. Continue baking until the chips are golden brown (some of the smaller ones may be darker; that’s OK.

Yum… enjoy!
