Melissa Muir - Where Art and Jewelry Play Together
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- My jewelry making journey began in 2004 as a creative outlet while working as a professional computer trainer in the Washington, DC area. I started by playing with wire and a cheap pair of pliers from a local craft store. It was never my intention to make jewelry as a living or even on the scale of which I do now. My first formal jewelry making workshop was in the summer of 2005 where I was introduced to basic soldering techniques. From that point on, I was smitten! I have attended a few jewelry making workshops to help strengthen certain skill sets. Most recently I have attended several semesters in the metalsmithing program offered at the University of Akron in Ohio, where my skills continue to grow by leaps and bounds.
