Jewelry Classes

Have you ever wanted to design and make your own necklace? Or your girlfriend's engagement ring?  Or maybe you saw something in the store and want to make something similiar with your personality on it ? Or maybe you just want to improve your metalsmithing skills?

If so, then come on over to Rene's jewelery/metalsmithing classes.  Students will learn how to make earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelets and anything else you want out of silver, gold (or other metals) and precious stones. 

All skill levels are invited to class.

You are welcome to come as little as once a month or as much as twice a week --- whatever your schedule dictates.  Classes are offered Mondays & Thursdays 6pm -- 9pm (other times and days by appointment) at the Galleon's Gold Workshop on 12th St. in Ogden, Utah. 

Also ~ ~ ~ 
We are also able to give demonstrations and one day classes to schools, "girl's night out," church groups, scouts, etc. We are happy to travel to Salt Lake, Davis, Weber, Morgan, Cache, Carbon and Box Elder counties in Utah. If you would like us to do something in another place, please let us know and we can see what the options are.  We will bring all supplies needed. ~ ~ ~

yet another favorite

You are my sunshine,
  My only sunshine.
You make me happy,
  When skies are grey...

What makes you happy when skies are grey??  For my friend, Kit, it is painting small pleasures. But to be honest, I have never seen her not happy. She is one of those people who always has on a beautiful smile with happiness radiating from her.

And so today, I highlight Kit's blog, http://www.paintinggrey.blogspot.com/

Kit started painting to find a sense of self after her first child was born. She uses oil and watercolor, but has also used acrylics a little.  I love her various bird collections. They bring a sunshine into a room and when you look at them, you can't help but smile.  She also paints little, little watercolor scenes and turns them into necklaces, which I find ever so charming.



I knew when I first met Kit we would become freinds.  Maybe it was because we are both young moms, or that we both married Colombians, or maybe it was because we both like to try new things---what ever the reason, I know you will like her and her painting too.

Other than her beautiful work, I enjoy reading about the stories behind her paintings. I hope you do too!!


You can purchase her orginal paintings or prints from her blog. She also has an Etsy shop.


You'll never know dear,
   How much I love you.
Please don't take
   My sunshine away.

Another Treasury

I was thinking of Colombia tonight and all the fun things my husband has taught me about his homeland--- the art, the fun festivals, and Christmas Posadas.  So I put together this Colombian Treasury on Etsy. Please click here to see it!
