North Bennet Street School

I'm back at the jewelry bench after over a years break which I spent with our two young boys. It was lovely to spend so much time with them before they started kindergarten, and though I do love lego, it's great to be building things in gold again. My 4 year old said that we should make Lego jewelry and sell it so that he could buy sweets. I see he's been beaten to it: www.rewarestyle.com

I've also accepted a part-time teaching post in the jewelry department of North Bennet Street School in Boston's North end. I started there in September and am thoroughly enjoying teaching. If you ever get the chance to visit, it's the most wonderful place, filled with students involved in the creative work of making beautiful objects - jewelry, furniture, violins...
