When I first started creating jewelry, I used the good old artist wire. Of course after 1 wear or 2 the pretty exterior color started to come off. So I extended myself both financially (huge epic fail btw), and artistically and began using Sterling and Gold filled. The look amazing...the return...not so much.
So this time around I've decided to take another more affordable approach...reaching out to other metals. My personal fave right now? Aluminum! Super easy to work with, gorgeous in finish, doesn't break out my skin like Sterling...and it's super strong yet lightweight. What more can a designer ask for.
Well I'm sold. Look for my designs featuring the awesomeness that is Aluminum!
