Welcome to my first craftastic blog entry! The reason I started this blog was to discuss and post photos of my latest crafty projects.

Recently, Patrick and I took a jewelry making class. We worked with metals and semi-precious stones. It was a lot of fun. Here are some examples. The first is sterling silver and malachite and the second is a sterling silver and copper ring (my first ring). I really enjoyed making rings and am looking forward to getting a torch set up at home so I can solder. I love working with open flame.
