More Great Information on Crochet Heart:
The Working Day Of A Designer Jeweller by Jacqui Cartman
Friends always seem to assume that because you're at home all day that you're probably sitting at ease with a dry martini watching past episodes of "Friends" and maybe doing a bit of work occasionally. But people who work at home for themselves probably work harder and work longer hours than people at work! Believe it or not, I work more or less continuously from 7 in the morning to about 10 at night.
The first thing I do every day is to check my e mails and see if there are orders or enquiries and then go to my workroom and look at the glorious mess! I suppose some people would be horrified by the untidy state but when you're working hard you have to concentrate on creating something rather than being tidy. I work mainly with wire so at one end of my table I have reels of wire - hundreds of metres of fine silver , sterling silver and gold fill wire. Also all the various tools that I use litter the table - the most important a crochet hook for weaving the wire.
Then I have to decide what I need to do that day. It might be an order that's due. I tell people that orders might take a month but I can get them done quicker than that. Some people aren't bothered about speed - brides often order a tiara months in advance so I have to be organised and write it down. The best place for remembering things is my calendar on the internet browser - it even sends me an e mail to remind me when orders are due!
Most of the work I do is repetitious. I exhibit at craft fairs and exhibitions and there are "best sellers" which people expect you to have in their size so you have to maintain a healthy stock. After a while I tend to break off the routine work and try out a new design or a variation. It's not all life on the treadmill!
As I said , most of my work is with wire and of the silver wires , I prefer to work with fine silver wire which is 999 pure - it does not contain copper like sterling silver. Because of the purity you can burn the ends of the wire to create a ball of pure silver - and it won't go black like sterling silver. I weave with my crochet hook to create rings , bracelets and necklaces and often incorporate the silver balls into the design. If I need a stronger wire I will use sterling silver. The copper content makes it harder so I tend to use this in tiaras and some bracelets to give a stronger finish.
My favourite wire though , is gold fill wire. This is a tube of 14ct gold that has an inner core of jeweller's brass. The gold content is 100 times thicker than gold plate and it won't wear off , doesn't cause allergies and best of all , it's a lot cheaper than solid gold. What you see is 14ct gold and the colour is superb.
Another product I work with is PMC (Precious Metal Clay) silver. This amazing product is a by-product of the computer industry. Scraps of fine silver are mixed with a binder to form a clay. You then work with the clay to form whatever shape you want and you then have to burn off the binder in a kiln. I buy the PMC in small airtight packets and model designs with pastry cutters , say to a heart shape. I might add some texture or some cubic zirconia. The heat in the kiln burns off the binder and shrinks the piece slightly - you have to allow for this. It is expensive and you have be selective in how you use it but it does give you options.
Luckily , my husband's a good cook so I can continue working until the magic phrase "Dinner's ready". Strangely a glass or two of wine doesn't stop me making things! In fact , some of my best ideas come after a good bottle of Bordeaux..

Need Ideas for Valentine's Day!?
I want to make over 60 small items that would be suitable for the activities department at a seniors' residence to hand out for Valentine's Day. I prefer to crochet, but will consider other crafts as well. It must be economical as there are over 60 people, both men and women to give to, and it must be quick to make, as Valentine's Day is fast approaching. Thanks for any suggestions!
P.S. Last year I crocheted Heart shaped bookmarks for Valentine's Day, and then for St. Patrick's Day, I made Shamrock shaped bookmarks, so they have more than enough bookmarks.
I myself love papercrafts. I am now working on the small goodie boxes for my kids classmates. This website has tons of tutorials. They use specific type of cardstock, but you can find some in your neighborhood craft stores. You can also search "You Tube" and type in "Stamping Up" and you will get many projects from many demonstrators. The 2,4,6,8 boxes are pretty easy and inexpensive to make. Its up to you how you want to decorate it. If you need more advice you can always email me.
