Copyrights


A few quick words about copyrights. As an artist I’m always considerate of the work and ideas of other artists and I recommend that others act accordingly. It will not only save you from legal headaches but it will keep your work and the work of others original and even push you to work harder and be more creative in your own jewelry making. If you don’t already know specific jewelry projects and designs that are published in books, magazines, or elsewhere are the property of the original creator. While you are free to make an exact replica of a project for yourself or give one to a friend, you cannot make multiples of the piece and sell them as your own work. On occasion the creator of a project may grant permission for the duplication of the project, but you must contact them and ask for yourself.
