Thank you! I started with a lot of trial and error..LOL. But in all seriousness there aren't a lot of resources for this type of wire wrapping, and the pros tend to hold their secrects pretty tightly. Mostly what I did was look at other peoples pieces, try to dissect the techniques, and then apply them in my own work.

That said, not much has changed in the realm of help for this medium since I started, but I'm planning to start a series of technique and tool tutorials on my blog here sometime soon. Hopefully you'll find them helpful, and I'm always open to taking requests if there's certain techniques/tools/ect. that you want to know about.

That's great! Find a gap in your field and fill it; you're going to be successful. Can't wait to see these tutorials. I think a post about how you even got interested in the subject, how you had to self-teach, what or who influenced you, challenges you've faced, goals you'd like to achieve, etc would make for an interesting read.

You know, the PERSON behind the jewelry :)

Totally! It's something I've been think about for a long time. I've taught sporadically over the years, and have really enjoyed it. Ideally I'd like to do mostly teaching for work, and then create on my own leisure, instead of being on a steady production/marketing grind.

YES, that's a great idea! I'll have to start thinking on it, and piecing that together. It's been almost 8 years since I first started learning so it will probably be a long one! 🤣

Can't wait to read it ;)
