My New Apprentice. . .

My wonderful husband decided he would like to learn some metalsmithing techniques.  I wasn't sure how well I would do as his teacher, but decided to give it a try.  Now, you have to understand, my husband and I are two VERY different people.  I am very right-brained, spontaneous, and ADD; Scott, on the other hand, is much more left-brained, orderly, and a perfectionist. 

We had our first lesson last night which netted a very nice piece.  He was a wonderful student and caught on quickly.  I was able to overlook his tendencies toward non-spontaneity, and he was able to work through my tendencies to want to take over while he was forming a line:-)

I was pleased at the outcome and our ability to work together.  We may make a husband and wife team after all!
