Hello everyone...I'm a newbee!!

[maggiejo]

I am totally new to this forum and also quite new to jewellery making. For the past 2 years have been enamelling on copper (with silver cloisonne work) and have progressed to using sterling silver. There are lots of questions I would like to ask but for the moment just want to introduce myself. I live in South Wales. Are there any enamellers out there?

Morning maggie and welcome to the forum, we are all age ranges and different levels of experience here and I know that Nic (Murano) does some enamelling and probably a few others, and i am sure they will soon make themselves known to you.

Erm - was that meant for me??

Hi Maggiejo!. I am currently experimenting with enamels on fine silver which I am really enjoying - but I am very much the novice. There are definitly more experienced members out there who have run to my assistance when I have shouted HELP ME!!

As for who is in Wales...from memory there are a few - but not many have put themselves on the forum map.....http://platial.com/map/Cookson-Forum-Members-Map/719655...which is a shame - so see if you can add yourself sometime!! I think there is Ominicci in the south and Wendy in the north - officially on the map that is!!

I seem to be a bit slow off the mark this morning!! Well - I'm going off to sulk now!! ...and hopefully get some work done! Hold the fort girls...I'll pop back at elevensies to check you are doing it properly!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

Welcome to the forum Maggie!
I haven't tried enamelling yet, but after seeing other forum members work, I'd love to give it a go!
Can we see some pics of your work?
