I am a professional jewelry designer, but that means that my work is basically jewelry renderings on paper. i do everything else with my hands because I love it so much. I have a line of wrapped earrings and pendants that I sold at a Holiday Fair this past December and have an established Etsy site with nothing on it yet. In addition to my design work I teach at two schools so I am so busy with it that I am forever not photographing all of my work for sale and putting on my Etsy site. Sorry - this is a long answer. When I finally get my Etsy site up and running I will have it linked to this page. I am so glad you like work and have taken the time to comment. Lisa
