- New Article: How to Oxidize Brass

| Hi everyone, I hope you're enjoying a creativity-filled summer! I have a big announcement this week. I've decided to step down as editor of the Jewelry Making site and make way for another member of the community to share her (or his) knowledge here for a while. It's a big decision for me, as I've been with BellaOnline.com since 1993, initially as editor of the Fashion Jewelry site. But other duties and projects call! Thank you for subscribing to the Newsletter and visiting the site over the past couple of years. A new editor will be on board shortly to re-organize and provide fresh new content, so please stay tuned! Keep an eye out this winter for my new books, Quick Tips Beading and Quick Tips Wire Jewelry, and visit my site BeadJewelry.net anytime for new articles, blog posts, and jewelry making resources. ~ Chris
