Jewelry Making

I have recently been working at a place that sales costume jewelry & I am sit tagging some of the piece I think about how fun it would be to design & create my very own unique pieces of jewelry. I would need to get some jewelry making tools, beads & some wire to start off with. I am sure I would enjoy it. I am in the midst of doing tons of painting right now, so the idea of being creative in another medium sounds very appealing.
