This blog is about my handcrafted jewelry. I've read that the time spent in the jewelry business is 50% or more just doing computer and paper work. I think that is true. For instance, this blog. It's amazing the time it takes just to set it up and get all the pictures uploaded. I find that this Blogger program leaves much to be desired in the way it's designed. Eventually, I will get an "official" website up, but this works for now.
I would much rather spend my time working on some new creations, but requests are coming in for some online presence, so I need to take some time for that.
You will find that I work in metalwork, and also beading. Some people do one or the other, but I enjoy both. Working with metal, in that I use a torch a lot, to anneal the metal to make it workable, is a bit of a messy work. So on days that I don't want to get "dirty", or work in the cold garage, I will sit and my work desk and "cleanly" work on some beading. I get a sense of satisfaction when I am working with the metal, because that is where my creative juices start to flow. So more of those types of jewelry will be coming in the future.
