Hello

I am a recent newcomer to Orchid Digest and and it took a while to catchup with the thread of things and now I have my first question.

What are the risks during pregnancy with flux and pickle and other chemicals used when making jewellery

What are the risks during pregnancy with flux and pickle and other
chemicals used when making jewellery

This is a question that comes up about once a year or so. Some folks modify what they do during pregnancy, others choose to stop making jewelry entirely for the duration.

You should get all the MSDSs for chemicals you use, which everyone should anyway.

Check the archives for lots and lots of opinions.
