Hurricanes and Jewelry Making

Tip! More basic but a lot of fun, The Art of Making Jewelry, by Deborah Krupenia, Tammy Powley, and Jessica Wrobel (Thunder Bay Press, 2005), covers the tools and materials used in jewelry making, including standard glass, metal, and ceramic supplies as well as more unusual materials such as paper and papier mache. The book offers specific instructions for a wide range of projects using a variety of techniques, and profiles twenty well-known jewelry artists and their work.

Many people have a hobby of making jewelry and this is a good hobby because you can sell what you have made for quite a bit of money. There are many people who are willing to spend twice or three times as much as the precious stones that you put into your jewelry.

If you are considering getting into the jewelry business or if you are trying to find time to expand your business and make more jewelry so you can sell it, then perhaps during the 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season you can use this time while you are evacuated and cannot work or if you decide to stay behind to make jewelry.

Tip! Mike McDonough is and avid hobbyist. His primary craft hobbies include, stained glass, polymer clay, jewelry making, scrapbooking, and candle making.

Making jewelry can be a great business and a very fun hobby and some of the people who I have met who are experts in the field also sell their jewelry on the Internet. I have met some super people who specialize in jewelry making. Perhaps you should consider buying some jewelry from someone who has had to evacuate their home and is doing this to make extra money as a way to help those citizens of our nation who have been deprived of their jobs and forced to leave their homes. Perhaps you might consider spending the time in making some jewelry of your own. Please consider this and 2006.
