You know the phrase...jack of all trades, master of none.
Well...I hope the latter is not the case, but lately...I find myself picking up new hobbies.
This past Fall, I decided to take a jewelry class at the local community college. I've managed to make 2 pair of earrings, 1 copper bracelet (which I can't really wear, unless I wanted a green wrist), a silver ring and a pendant. I'm now in my second semester of the course...stuck on a filed ring that doesn't seem to want to take shape. I have class later tonight...so let's hope the continued filing doesn't drive me mad for another session. ;)
In addition to the jewelry...it seems I've picked up crocheting. Last month, I went to a friend's baby shower...and at one point, crochet hooks and balls of yarn were passed about. I learned how to crochet a single stitch...and there's been no going back ever since.
I'll try to post some pictures of my "crafty" escapades later this week. For now...I need to get back to writing some lyrics...

I look forward to seeing the pictures. I recently started crocheting myself. I'm working on my 1st pattern project.
Jewelry making. Awesome. I delved into gemology a bit in the last few years. Has this kept up, or is it long gone now?
