Introducing...

Hi everyone! This is Ji Eun! For my project, I am planning on doing jewelry making...I have never done jewelry making before, and by the end of it, maybe I'll have the initiative to continue, and sell them. I don't quite have the expenses for precious gems of course, but I plan on experimenting with different materials.

For my first project, I plan on making a pair (or maybe a set of three) of earrings. Since they're a small object, I can focus more of my energy on manipulating the metal with pliers and such.

For my second project, I plan on making a bracelet, with the use of simple beading string (the type that is clear and elastic) and beads, and focusing more on creating interesting loops and patterns with the beads (similar to how there are various different "loops" for knitting...which I have also never done).

For my last project, I want to make a necklace, which will combine the things that I will have learnt with the first two, and I want to use some prettier materials (such as crystal beads) and really make it look fancy.

What do you think? Is it enough, or does it sound like I aimed too low? This is something I worry about often :(

Your projects sound interesting! I think the progression from one project to the next will add a lot of value to the final project since you have a common goal in mind. It seems like you'll be exploring jewelry making with quite a few different tools and materials. It will be interesting to see it all finished. Happy Making!
