I began putting together some jewelry making tutorials a couple of years ago in an effort to provide affordable lessons for metalsmithing techniques that would enable people to learn a new technique relatively easily, be able to ask questions, and do it all on their own time.

The following jewelry making tutorials are all step by step with detailed photographs showing not only what the piece looks like along the way, but the tool position during the process as well.

I am available through email to answer any questions about the jewelry making technique, tools, or materials that I use in the process of these tutorials.
