Join the Capitola Girl's Jewelry Network
Like many creative people, I have dreams. And, one of them was to create a space for independent jewelry designers to network, trade tips, talk about their experiences, and to support and encourage others to keep their creative dreams alive.
With that goal in mind, I created a jewelry network for independent designers using Ning. For those of you who are not familiar with Ning, its an online service where you can create, customize, and share your own Social Network. If you are interested in seeing the network that I've set up, please visit:

If you are an independent jewelry maker who wants to request an invite to join the network, please feel free to click here.
Call for Group Icons!
As an incentive to get the groups sharing started, the first member to join an applicable web group on the network will have the opportunity to give permission for one of your creations to be displayed as a Group icon. On each Group home page where icon space is still available, the first member to join that group will be credited as the designer, and the credit will include a link to your online shop or website/blog page.
I have created a variety of special interest groups for Metal Jewelry Makers, Beadweavers, Bead Stringers, Ceramic Jewelry Arts, Fiber Jewelry Arts, and more. And, as I'm getting the network off the ground, I am looking for independent jewelry artists who are willing to provide photographs of their jewelry arts to use as group icons. The first member to join each open group is eligible to submit a picture for use as the group logo and will credited as the artist for the group logo on the Group home page. The credit will include a link to your shop or website/blog page.
