Well, I’m really trying to get back in the swing of things after our vacation! It’s been hard! Do you ever need a vacation after your vacation?! I think I do!! This weekend (I know it’s only Tuesday!) I’m definitely going to get caught up on my rest.
I really want to tell you about my super exciting weekend! I wish I had taken a couple photos, but we were just too busy! Anyway, last weekend I took a really great class at Danaca Design called Skill Advancement for Jewelers and it was taught by Nanz Aalund. If you are a jeweler and reading this, you probably know who she is. She’s an incredible artist, a fabulous teacher and you just couldn’t meet anyone nicer. I learned so many tricks and tips over the weekend and not just from our instructor, but from all the amazing students in our class. Good stuff! I haven’t taken a class for so long and it was just what I needed to push me and get me excited. I really believe that learning new skills that can add to your craft is the key to building your business. For me personally, I need that challenge – if things get too stagnant I lose all motivation!
I’m about all caught up with my custom and made to order items and am going to have some time for a lot new goodies soon. I did manage to get a couple little items done today that I thought I would share.
Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Ring with 14K gold and sterling – soooo pretty!
Until next time!
