Learning New Techniques

I love using chain in my jewelry design,
but I can't always find the style I want,
in metal I want, or it's just simply way too expensive.

So this morning I am starting a ten week class
at the Mesa Arts Center.
I will be learning how to make hand-made chains and findings from silver wire and sheet metal using soldering, piercing, forging and texturing techniques.  I've wanted to take a class here every since we moved to AZ and I'm super excited that it's finally happening today!
