Oh dear me. Can open, worms EVERYWHERE by the looks of this!
I'm not going to even pretend that what I make is going to fascinate everyone here. I bet if I repeatedly posted pictures of little gold fingerprint hearts with different fingerprints on them, people would get pretty fed up after a while, but I love it and surely that's what what matters - that we get enjoyment from this?!?
Jewellery making can be such a lonely profession. I work 40+ hours a week and can go for weeks without speaking to anyone. I know plenty of engravers / setters in the same position.
It would be a shame for this outlet to disappear because some of us weren't perceived "talented enough"; haven't been to college or perhaps don't have time to continually develop for whatever reason.
I've met some really lovely, generous people here. Long let it continue. xx
