A list of my favorite magazines.
Art Jewelry Magazine: This publication covers the techniques involved in designing
and creating jewelry. The magazine includes step by step instructions on a variety of
procedures and never fails to introduce something new. There are lots of interesting
jewelry photos throughout. This magazine is helpful for all skill levels.
Jewelry Arts and Lapidary Journal: Includes tips and in-depth explanations on
using materials and applying techniques, guidance on how to sell jewelry, new products
and an event calendar. Emphasis in the magazine is on jewelry artistry.
The Crafts Report Magazine: I like this magazine because the articles provide
helpful business information about how to successfully market ones work. Many tips are
included on what works and what doesn't.
Readers Digest: I have subscribed to this magazine since the beginning of time as
there always seems to be something of interest for me.
New Mexico Magazine: This magazine is particularly good if you are at all interested in
what is going on in New Mexico or if you are planning to travel to New Mexico. The
publication covers all sorts of information on out-of-the way tourist places, current museum
and gallery shows, neat places to eat, and it also provides insight on the state's economic
condition.
AARP Magazine: I joined AARP at the first opportunity. I received the invitation a
couple of weeks before my 50th birthday and have enjoyed the news articles, interesting
stories and retirement information provided. It is well written and informative.
Step by Step Wire Jewelry: Step by step techniques are outlined for a variety of wire
jewelry projects. Many helpful tips are included.
Today's Creative Home Arts Magazine: This is a fun magazine for ideas. It truly
covers every craft imaginable from updating your ceiling fan to creating natural dyes for
easter eggs. If you like the Carol Duvall show, you will love this magazine.
Metalsmith: Covers the most current trends in metals and metal artists. The content
seems to focus on a few artists; with some being featured as often as once a year. It is
good to know who is most notable in the metals field.
American Craft Magazine: Covers the most current trends in craft art. I mostly like
this magazine for the pictures as there are some interesting works of art displayed here.
