Before the flu descended upon me.....

 and knocked me out for a week I posted my first reel onto instagram.  I'd been told that this was a great way to get more notice.  It worked, my account activity increased by 6355 percent and my reel had over 3000 views!  It was good to know that as I lay in my bed there was still interest in my account which is a valuable tool in the promotion of my work.

This is me - Rebecca Mihill at my work bench My goals By doing this blog I hope to achieve the following goals: -Make contact with a local jeweller and hopefully build a relationship with them in order to support me on my journey of setting up my own business. -See how an independent jeweller runs their practice: What do they make? How do they make it? How do they make a profit/living from it? -Along this journey compile questions that come up and seek answers.
