Let me know how it works. I'm very curious to know if it helps.
You might also try a google search "how to use a rolling mill" & find a video on youtube.
Good Luck

Profile Information
- About Me
- I make one-of-a-kind hand made jewelry and work from my home. My jewelry consists of gemstones, lampwork and boro glass beads, Swarovski crystals mixed with metals.
I do alot of custom work.
I learned about exceptional design from my parents who owned and ran a coutre shop in Northern New Jersey. I started working there at the age of 13 and had the wonderful experience of going to NYC with them "to the market". I got to go to the big showrooms with them and see the shows an feel the excitement.
My Mom, who loved culture, took me through the streets of NYC to admire the different kinds of architecture, inside the finest hotels to learn about interior design, to museums, the theatre and the finest restaurants.
Those experiences have influenced my entire life. I miss her so much!!
Recently, a local art/jewelry shop took the bulk of my stock and has me as their 'featured' artist.
- How many years have you been designing jewelry?
- I've been a jewelry-holic for 25 years. I started designing by taking old pieces that were broken or just never worn and redoing them. It became an obsession and I've been doing it ever since. That was 3-4 years ago. I've since taken silversmithing classes and am getting into that more and more.
- What is your favorite jewelry website?
- http://www.etsy.com
- What is your favorite jewelry store?
- The Whippoorwill Works, in Audubon, PA, of course, where I'm the featured jewelry artist.
- Did you go to school to learn jewelry design?
- No, but I have taken courses on silversmithing and I'm getting into that more and more. I work with copper, brass and silver.
- Do you have a favorite jewelry designer (other then yourself...)
- Amy Kahn Russell

- Why hello my dear and thank you for the comment. I would love to help you out. You can ask as many questions as you want. Do you perhaps have a regular email that I can send you instructions to such as yahoo or google, aol or sbcglobal or something like that? The first thing I need you to do is tell me the make and model of your camera. Then I can tell you how to use it to the bes of your ability in order to capture the best photos your camera is capable of. Also, The photocube I have I ordered off ebay for about 40-60 bucks. But, I have a link to a site where you can get instructions on how to make your own. If you'd be interested in any of this please send me an email address so i can come up with some diagrams for you. Pictured instructions are so much easier to work with! :-D Just ask Amy from Sterling Lace. I helped her learn how to use the important functions on her camera AND did some photos for her. Yes I use photoshop but never to enhance the picture, only to bring it out to it's most true form..OR, like for Amy, when setting up pictures to sell I might blur out the background to make the item stand out a bit more. But I never use it to make something look better to help it sell a lie. Sometimes the pictures come out so good I don't even need it. But go ahead and send me a msg at gotdimps@sbcglobal.net and we can get you started!!

Audrey Busike/JOY Jewels by Audrey said… - Hi Paula...I am interested in combining orders, but I'm concerned about whether it would be breaking any terms of your wholesale license. Does it?
Also, I have slowed down a bit on making my wares, and I'm purchasing Sterling Findings less these day because I'm making my own using Sterling wire, but I'm interested in Non-Tarnish Sterling Silver wire, pearls and crystals.

- LOL! You poor thing....I certainly understand how you could feel that way!!! Learning to roll with it, and overcome is a process, and I as a Christian have learned I can not always do it on my own power...I have to go to the source and ask for it. He never disapoints me! I will pray that you have more JOY and stength to overcome what ever your trial is. :O)
