Hi I am new to silversmithing, having previously worked on beaded jewellery. I'm 19 from a little nutty place called Stroud in Gloucestershire. Me and my mum have decided to invest in the equipment to start metal work to extend our jewellery making to new levels. (Though i have have managed to blag it that the stuff is kept at my flat! :) ) Any tips and explanations of techniques would be most welcome, as I feel a little like i'm working blind! Oh and I'm a huge cat lover too.

Hello!:welcome:

There are some free tutorials and step-by-step photos of me making bangles and things like that on my blog if you find them useful - look on the left hand side of the blog for links - and people here are very helpful!

You have been warned that this is all very addictive and that soldering etc will soon take over your life, right?!
