Making Gemstone Pendants

So for a few months now I've been practicing making gemstone pendants. I started off going to the bead store and asking them if they had any advice for me.

I'll be teaching a class on making cabs at the Grey School 2010 Illinois Conclave. I can't wait! There's sure to be a blog post about the events next month.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share that with you. Maybe I'll post a tutorial one of these days.
