Back in December I ordered a jewelry kiln! I think it’s going to make a huge difference in my jewelry making, especially since I’ll be able to experiment with bronze and copper clays, and hopefully combine them in jewelry pieces. I’m pretty excited to try it out.

I want to get these finished before I start something else. I’m also taking a Craftsy class on kiln-fired precious metal clay and learning a lot of new techniques that I couldn’t use with the torch. One of those things is using cork clay to make hollow silver pieces. There are so many opportunities on the horizon with the kiln!
