To see Creativity

Hello,

I teach art to students with special needs. To see them create jewelry and to see their smiles at what they have created has truly been a blessing in my life. Some students, say that they want to be jewelry designers, I could not be more pleased. To be able to teach something that you love doing is truly a gift from God. (Peace)

Jewelry to Go

I take a commuter train each day to work, I also take small projects, to work on, people on the train ask me about my jewelry, which allows me to pass out business cards and postcards. I have even sold, some of the pieces , that I was working on. Jewelry makers take your work everywhere. I am so glad it is portable.(Peace)

It's a Process

I love to learn new things, right know it's wire wrapping, it's so exciting, I brought a couple of dvd's from Sharilyn Miller, and I'm having a good time making wire cages, jump rings and ear wires. I will post some new things as soon as I can. I'm also planning my vacation, which is in three weeks. It is well needed. Of course I will take some beading projects with me, to bead on the beach.( Peace)

Most fine jewelry can be cleaned with a mild liquid soap, warm water.
Soak for a few minutes and dry with a soft,cloth.

Pearls can be scratched so they should be cleaned with soft brush or cloth,
warm water, and a mild liquid soap. Let air dry.

Clean and polish sterling silver jewelry with non-abrasive silver polishing cloth' Sunshine company makes a nice one.(Peace)
