For my historical artifact, I chose to do Jewellery in Ancient Egypt. I honestly had so much fun with this project and wish I could have made more stuff! I chose jewellery because I wanted to challenge myself, rather than just doing a flat piece of art, something in my comfort zone. I made two pieces (me being extra): a pair of gold hoops and a gold neck collar. I had bigger plans for the collar, but time and my jewellery making abilities got the best of me, but I am still super proud of how it turned out. The earrings on the other hand were not my favourite, and that is partly because they hurt my ears so much. They are made of solid clay which I honestly thought would be lighter but oh boy was I wrong. I also had a lot of fun with the paper, as I attempted to give it an old fashioned papyrus look. I think overall I did a 9/10 job. I’m usually not one to be giving myself high marks but I feel like I worked really hard and I accomplished what I needed. This was probably one of my favourite projects and if I got a chance to do it again, I would!
