D.I.Y. Wedding Rings
It's wedding season! and people are thinking about making their wedding rings. I have worked with a few people already this month to create some really great engagement rings, and wedding bands. Some are silver, some are gold, some have put each others fingerprints on the bands, others are doing big beautiful sapphires instead of diamonds.

Creative block due to lack of tools?
Too often I hear students say, "I can't make what I want to make to make because I need an X" Where X is usually a tool they don't have. My response is "Look at what you have" too often we take for granted what we have and fail to see it, and it's inherent usefulness. In Jewelry making, innovation can come in the way of making an old tool do new tricks. I challenge you to revisit your tools with this new perspective. -Kirk
