Hello from rainy UK!
Hello! I've been looking at the YOJ on and off for the last 3 months and loved what I saw, so when I realised I could sign up for the next quarter I jumped at the chance! I live on the south coast of England, and it's been raining here virtually non-stop for DAYS!
I've been making jewellery for years, selling it for about 4 years and teaching classes (mainly wirework and macrame with a bit of polymer clay thrown in for good measure) for about 4 years I think. I also contribute to the UK's Bead magazine. The necklace below was made using sterling silver wire, aquamarine beads and a beautiful lampwork bead by Isabelle Anderson.

That is beautiful! Welcome to YOJ, Joanne.

You know how you look at something that someone else has done and you think, now why didn't I come up with something like that? Well, that is what I thought about this. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the links in this. It is beautiful and elegant. Welcome to the YOJ!
