fantastic5, Ann I showed my sister your pieces you made. Her an I took a Silversmithing class several months back, we learned enough to 1. Decide we needed better classes, 2. Practice techniques that work for us. Well... I knew after (like you) watching YouTube and countless other videos I WOULD LEARN THIS. She all but gave up cause our pieces were horrible and she just thought she couldn't do it! YET AGAIN YOUR PIECES INSPIRED HER AS WELL!!! (A lot of that going around Kudos) Now she knows it was her and she also wants to go to WH for SilverI. Thank You your inspirational post will go farther than you'll ever know!!

I agree with icatz. Being self critical is good in that it will help you strive for perfection. However few others will notice what to you are obvious flaws. I have put some things in a junk box to melt down later and people will see them and want hem. LOL Most consumers focus on the overall look of the piece, not the details. BTW the trillion looks great. Very nice work. Glad you had a good time. Vic

What fun! Your pieces are very nicely finished - great job! (That's one of the things I'm super picky about). I'm glad to hear you really enjoyed the school and the instructor! Now to keep going and build on that foundation!

I like the work. I like the style. I am uncertain if I like having to attend in 2018. I will have to go. Thanks for sharing.

I want to go now! It looks more affordable than I thought - was a little scared to check out their prices but I could commute from my mom's house....
