Thu, 22 Jun 2006 13:18:08 GMT

Yesterday I mentioned that I'd previewed a fantastic new resource that would be of tremendous benefit to my readers.

Lorri has obviously put an enormous amount of work and research into this book, and it is absolutely full to bursting with useful information. As a big majority of my website visitors are jewelry makers, I'm VERY excited to be able to recommend it! I know I'm going to be referring to my copy again and again...
