Chain, chain, chain


I am a member of our local gem & mineral group and have met great, creative people through this venue. Jacolyn & Roger Campbell, both members as well, are a jewelry making couple! She specializes in wire wrapping and Roger is a champion at chain maille. Jacolyn teaches for us here, (her next scheduled class in April 18th) and Roger usually comes along and this last time he brought me some chain maille beads from brass. I was anxious to create something fabulous from them and here is my creation. I love chain and I love a brass finish. I also love to layer my vintage jewelry and this is the perfect piece to do this with. If you'd like to learn chain maille, Roger is a willing and able teacher too, just let us know and we will schedule a class.

If there is a Gem & Mineral group near you, I'd recommend it.
