I started my jewelry career by taking an M.S. degree at SUNY New
Paltz in the 70’s. I worked at home, did local crafts shows, &
wholesaled to local stores. I was recommended to a Lg. chain of Mall
jewelry stores to do bench repairs on site. I worked there one day a
week and at 2 other stores. Worke d from home resetting diamonds
(engagement rings), &general repairs.
Left jewelry making in 1987 to go back to teaching art & comp.
graphics. Retired in '06 and within the last year got back into
jewelry making, now in Florida. Taking classes from some special
jewelers and enjoying the one of a kind designing. Also, very
enthusiastic about metal bead making after ta king a class with
Pauline Warg. After so much commercial work, I am learning about
newer tools, chemicals, processes, etc. Want to learn channel &
beadsetting-
Love the learning and want to take more specialized classes!

I have actually been receiving the digest on an old e-mail address,
and am re-subscribing with my new address, so I have been around for
a little while now!
