“Many of my students who have jewelry businesses and were primarily beading have found that their metal clay pieces sell faster and better, and draw a lot of attention at shows and other venues,” says Lis-el Crowley of Art & Soul Gallery / Studio.
If you’ve been tempted to try your hand at the fascinating jewelry medium of metal clay, see Lis’el’s article Getting Started with Silver Clay before you shop for supplies.

For anyone with a creative urge and is considering try silver clay I must warn you. It is highly addictive. You may lose sleep. The anxiety of waiting for you piece to come out of kiln is unbearable. I speak this way becuase of experience as my wife and I find ourselves 4 years later after discovering silver clay neck deep in the craft. In fact as I write this post I am watching the kids for the weekend as my wife is taking yet another weekend workshop. All joking aside it opens up a whole new world of possibilities in jewelry design.
