Hi there
I am fairly new to making jewellery, done a City and Guilds Course in silversmithing and design and am mainly teaching myself various techniques including PMC and bead weaving. I am also in the process of learning how to use polymer clay.
I am now preparing for my first ever stall at a local Hafla where I will hopefully sell a few items. The event is on the 22nd at Guildford Hall (can't post URL due to posting rules) and I am concentrating on making items for bellydancers (anklets and foot thongs).Trouble with the foot thongs is that I can currently only make them in size 4/5 (my own foot size) and 7 (a friend's foot size). I haven't yet sussed out how to make other sizes!
In my dayjob I am a journalist and also work as a hypnotherapist.
Anyway I just wanted to say allo and introduce myself.Would be nice to get in touch with other designers from Cardiff.
