Polishing Jewelry Earwires

I thought you'd like to see a bit of the process of making jewelry - the little spheres, ovals and pins in my hand are stainless steel shot.

The "shot" is used to polish metal. Add the shot and a few drops detergent to a tumbler along with the metal to be polished. Here I'm polishing some sterling silver earwires I made!
