Margo is joined by the ever-creative and generous Tamara Honaman. Tammy is a passionate jewelry artist, educator, mentor, and connector who has spent more than 30 years inspiring others to explore their creativity. From publishing and television to workshops, books, and now her own podcast and maker community, Tammy's career has been defined by helping others feel empowered to make something beautiful.
As the host of Heart & Hands of a Maker and founder of the Mixed Media Makers community, Tammy shares stories, resources, and techniques that make art more approachable for everyone. She's also the author of several books—including her newest release, Projects and Techniques for Metal Clay Jewelry—and continues to teach across the U.S. and internationally. With a brand-new studio space and a full calendar of workshops and shows ahead, Tammy is embracing this next chapter with her trademark heart and enthusiasm.
Margo and Tammy discuss:
How one color-filled polymer clay project (and a "no torches in the house" rule!) changed the trajectory of her life
Decades in publishing: from Lapidary Journal and Interweave to producing 13 series of Beads, Baubles & Jewels for PBS
Why teaching and mentorship are at the heart of everything she does—and how she helps others feel confident and creative
Tips for aspiring teachers and anyone who wants to carve out more time for creativity
The story behind her brand-new studio and her latest book, Projects and Techniques for Metal Clay Jewelry
Why "permission to try"—and to fail—is one of the most powerful tools a maker can have
