beginner's jewelry class

I have been waiting for two years before I finally signed up a beginner's jewelry class this Spring. In the first class last week, John (the talented artist, instructor) demonstrated piercing technique. In his words, piercing is very meditative. I found out that quite so.
Meanwhile, I have been fascinated about Ronen Kadushin's open design. Last night, I did two candle holders based on his design. I loved them very much.
