Cool, there weren't any jewelery classes at the art academy I went to... wish there were. I'd love to learn a craft/art like that :)

No problem, Your a very talented photographer. Thanks for looking at my work! I actually learned the basics of how to make jewelery at my university, but I learned the technique that I use (repoussage) from a local guest artist that came and did a demonstration. Other than that...a lot of trial and error;-)
