Is your studio healthy or hazardous? Here’s how to create the jewelry you love while keeping your health in check.

Yep, I get it! You LOVE making jewelry.

But did you know this creative career could potentially be one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet?

Your subjecting yourself to chemicals on a daily basis…how do you know if your studio is safe!?!

I know I didn’t. I remember having a Shingles scare because of a rash that broke out while moving chemicals around my studio here in NYC several years ago.

One of our SOS coaches, Sarah McAleer, overcame a bought with Sepsis that was brought on by poor ventilation in her studio.

How much are we risking as jewelry makers?

Today, we’re talking about best practices to have an eco-friendly jewelry studio and take control of your health and safety.

I invited Christine Dhein on the show to talk about how to protect ourselves from the inherent hazards that come along with being a jeweler and working on the bench.

You don’t have to give up the creative career you love to stay healthy. You just need to follow some best practices for a healthy, eco-studio.

Christine is an author, a jeweler and a grant-winning educator… She is the founder of Green Jewelry News, the author of “The Eco-Jewelry Handbook.”
