Learning Process

Still trying to get better in the art of jewelry making. Many steps still frustrate me. Trying to make earrings with colors OTHER THAN blue or green is a challenge for me since I am always drawn to those colors. I am learning how to "loop" the ends of the pins, and that is tough. I prefer using crimp beads, but I am new to that also. I guess it just takes alot of practice. I am trying... practiced looping and crimping on more than 20 wires. The problem I see with looping is that each wire will be different, where I am more likely to make uniform crimps. But, the crimp beads are difficult to work with. Hmmmmmm... Better get some sleep and try some more tomorrow.
