dragonfly flew away crashed and burned

I spent over a week perfecting my dragonfly brooch. Moulding the body, rolling the wings, attaching the brooch finding and then syringing veins in the wings.
Then I began clearing up whilst I waited for the dragonfly to completely dry.
Just then disaster struck, I turned around caught the lead to the warmer that my pieces were sitting on and at that point saw the dragonfly soaring through the air. Then the momentum was lost and the precious
piece fell dramatically to the ground where the impact was too much. The piece became many, much smaller pieces.
Unable to contain my frustration I became a mad woman and uncontrollable stomped around the lounge expelling expletives like I had never done before.
Now I need a few days to overcome my disappointment and then I will begin my creation again.
