Jewelry Making for the Rest of Us

Hi!  I'm Christine Gierer, and this is my lovingly tended jewelry making site. My mission is to provide you with:

• Easy to understand jewelry making information (even for beginners!).
• Instructions with detailed pictures so you can clearly see how to achieve stellar results.
• Challenging and exciting projects and techniques

But don't you think this site is just for beginners! My passion is for the intermediate level information that challenges, makes life easier, and gives me quicker results.  I'm also a bit of stickler for quality so you'll find information about that kind of stuff too. 

If you're an intermediate or advanced level jewelry maker you'll appreciate this sort of information:

• Tips and techniques for jewelry making enthusiasts who are out to learn more, achieve quicker, faster, easier results, and take your jewelry making to the next level. 
• Ideas and advice on turning your passion for jewelry making in to a real source of income. 
• Which suppliers provide the best quality and service at the best prices.
• What tools to use and which ones are best.  And even more importantly, which ones are a total waste of money!  (I don't want to toot my own horn, but I have an awesome list of these in my Wire Work Secrets E-book).

I encourage you to look around, explore the site, and if you like what you see, sign up for my "I'm Making Jewelry in my Jam Jams" newsletter.  It's getting rave reviews so I bet you'll love it.  Sign up now and you'll get a free wire work tutorial too.
