I listen to this podcast as Iâm working in my tiny home studio. It gives me so much ambition and encouragement to keep creating and I learn so much with every episode!! I will be signing up for the newsletter as well, such a great idea. Thank you Christine! đ
Another interesting and informative podcast with Joy Kruse. I enjoy her work and nice to hear about her background into jewelry.
Thanks again Christine for a great podcast.
I found this podcast and absolutely fell in love. Christine is such a real down to earth personality. I am a 59 yr old metalsmith only in it since 2017. It saved my life from imminent death by grief. I found that I have a knack for the art. And I have absolutely connected to so many of her interviews., as well some of her story. Thank you Christine for keeping it real.
Thank-you so much Christine, these episodes are one of the things I genuinely look forward to every week. Your conversations are inspiring, heartwarming, heartbreaking and the perfect reality check. So very happy to have found this podcast.
What a great way to pass the time as a maker. Christine is the Terry Gross of the jewelry maker world. Bravo!
