A bit about Sarah

Silversmithing is a hobby that got out of hand for Sarah. She started with a few videos but soon found that her ADHD brain needed a faster way to learn and get that dopamine hit. Over the last 8 years she has taught across Australia using a simplified technique to teach anyone basic jewellery skills.

Why accessible silversmithing? Because these basic skills can be accessed by anyone, with no prior learning you can work through this book and gain the confidence and skills to make jewellery. There are tips of household items you can use instead of expensive jewellery tools.

Sarah's next project is to create a video series to accompany the book, given that this book has taken 7 years to bring to life it could be a while as she does have ADHD and Autism and the chances are that she may get a little distracted...
