C Campbell
Livermore, CA. USA

Hello all. I am a novice with metal clay, but I have been making
beaded jewelry for a couple of years. Am also trying to learn wire
techniques. I have read several articles on this site and found so
much I felt joining would be a wonderful learning
experience for me.

Mary Hatt
Cet design studio
Mt prospect, IL. USA

I am a dental technician for over 30 years and make jewelry as a
hobby keeping some pieces and gifting or selling others. Designing
and creating wax patterns, castings, carving stones, setting gems
and finishing jewelry is a wonderful distraction from fabricating
dental restorations but both use similar tools and techniques which
require artistic and imaginative flair. I look forward to learning
from and participating in the forum. Its always a pleasure sharing
with others who have like interests and skills.
