    I’m grateful for the opportunity to come to Port Townsend and take a class with Becky and have Cheryl’s help in the classroom and warehouse. I’m so grateful that Becky is so well supported so that she can do what she does…create beautiful jewelry, explore and share her knowledge. I’m a little overwhelmed by the gratitude in Becky’s post. Thank you for so eloquently sharing. I, too, love thrift stores!

    I live in Silverdale, interesting to see you are close by. I’m curious where the name “Nunn” came from. My Grandmother lived in Nunn, CO. I love your jewelry! You are very talented.
