MY VERY FIRST BEZEL...IM SO HAPPY I COULD JUST SPIT!









Well I finally did it...I set my very first stone. What a long road this has been, and it's only just begun. I have wanted to learn how to make bezels and set stones since I started making jewelry, though there were a few obstacles holding me back. First you need like a million tools and second someone to teach you. Though It took a little longer than expected I have done it. Thanks to You Tube and many other free websites I was able to teach myself the basics of bezel setting. I swear the funniest part of this whole experience was my boyfriends face when I told him I would be using the torch INSIDE... Needless to say there is now a shinny new fire extinguisher right by my side. Yes that's it next to my torch...Safety first people, safety first! (LOL) Well off to play with more stones...Bye bye for now...
