Thanks everyone for your input.
new camera and other photography equipment are on the top of the list of items I need and will buy once my father's estate is settled. Hopefully my parents house will be sold and I'll get my share, by the end of this year. Thankfully the house is just 3 blocks away from Johns Hopkins Univ, and the housing market there has mostly recovered from the housing crash. Until then I may have use of futher s-i-l DiSLR
I talk with daughter about her wearing some of my jewelry at the Md Renn Faire, this season. Not a weekend has gone by this Renn faire Season that she hasn't had her photo taken by professional photographers. We may also go in together for a photo shoot by a friend whose work we greatly admire,
Rock tumbler is something I have consider getting someday, though I can get great polish finish on the copper with the
Flex Shaft Rotary toolI have already invested in. I have taken a class on how to use it and my latest Copper piece is a tree I etch by hand using the flex shaft instead of cutting out the tree using jeweler's saw. I am going to make it into a bracelet once the copper and silver links I order today arrive. Daughter and I combined our orders for added discount.
Right now I debating trying to use the digital camera Jonwin got us, or wait unilt s-i-l and I can get together, so he can teach me to use his DiSLR. before he lends it to me.
And Smash the Esty site is mainly place I send anyone interested in my jewelry to, from facebook, or give my business card to. I realize my chances of completing their against the Chinese resellers and over inflated ego sellers are slim. Still it's there just in case someone does chance upon my jewelry and buys something, between shows. Daughter has inform me that there is an Goth event the day after Thanksgiving that doesn't have Vendor fee, I may try to sell some silver and garnet necklaces there.
