Smile PMC beadcaps?

Can anyone recommend a good tutorial or book that might show how to make interesting PMC beadcaps?

Do you already work with PMC at all? If you do, it's easy peasy. And fun too!

I would also love some instruction on pmc/bronze clay/copper clay bead caps. I'm a total beginner with metal clay and too scared to start without some guidance.

I love Kate McKinnon's stuff. I'm a noob in PMC also and bought her book. I love

Ali, I'm hoping to take an Andrea G. class next summer. I've heard nothing but great things about her classes and about her!

Lori, thanks for the tip on Kate M.

I bought enough PMC stuff to get started, but every time I go downstairs my glass whispers, "Hey, honey, come over HERE..."
