Handmade jewelry - behind the scenes (silver and other metals)

Most jewelry is made with some type of metal, be it a clasp, an ear wire, or as part of the design. When I first started making jewelry for fun I used the cheapest parts I could find. Most of it was base metal plated with either gold or silver, or gold or silver color. Base metal is aluminum, copper, tin, or zinc. I practiced over and over. Eventually I sold some of those early pieces on eBay and in a local boutique.
