My new Jewelry Class

Image
I'm excited about a new path I'm on. I registered @ Oakland County Community College on September 10, 2010. I had a list of classes I was interested in. My top being a Video editing class. Yes you heard me right. I fell in love with video editing when I made a home video from my Granddaughter Birthday celebration. I wanted to take it a step further. My second choice was a metal-smith class, so when I went to register for class, I was informed, that the video editing class had already started and the jewelry class was available. I was excited about the metal-smith's class. This class will allow me to make unique sterling silver clip on earrings and other fine metal jewelry. This will be a class of challenge, being that everything I've learned about jewelry making I was self taught and spiritually lead. I can't wait to get to class!

I've been creating jewelry since 1989, and I still find jewelry findings I've purchased from years ago and haven't used. At times while going through my inventory, I chuckle when I come across them. Getting back to signature designs, the best way to do it is to create a signature line of jewelry. A signature line of jewelry can be a favored design or designs with your signature; I've created both lines. A more favored design can be identified by your customers or one of your favorite picks. Remember when you identify it, let your customers know which design is your signature design and which are just signed and dated. My signature line are designs that customers recognize when out and about on other custom...
