Hello everyone!
I'm quite new to the forum thing but it's come in handy looking for help and ideas previously when I've googled things, so I thought I would join it. I thought I'd introduce myself [emoji4]
I'm an aircraft engineer by trade and needed a hobby, I love jewellery so silversmithing seemed the logical choice. I did a course at the beginning of the year and learnt the basics. Since then I have been trying out new things, making mistakes and practicing.
I love working with silver and I've recently been working with silver clay which is a lot of fun. I've just received a kiln for Christmas so lots of enamelling to do in the new year!
Anyway, I look forward to gaining some knowledge and inspiration [emoji4]

Hi Louise!

Nice to meet you, I'm new around here too but everyone seems very friendly. What a great present to get! Haven't ever tried enamelling before but it's definitely something I hope to get round to trying one day. I work with silver clay a lot too but also bronze and iron clay as it's quite a bit cheaper!

Welcome to the forum, you will find lots of helpful and friendly advice :)
I still haven't got round to delving into enamelling although its definitely on my 'to do one day when I have time' list.
