"You do not need to spend a lot of money on expensive materials to create beautiful jewelry," says author Helen Driggs, master jewelry and metalsmith artist. "There are many ways to achieve certain techniques in jewelry making, and many common household objects are easily substituted for expensive tools."
The artist also encourages the act of found art in jewelry making, as well as using sustainable products. "I often use re-purposed and recycled materials in my work because I care about sustainable products and reducing my carbon footprint on the planet," she says. When she isn't creating jewelry or writing for Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist magazine, Driggs teaches jewelry making, providing courses both online and in person.
