 | Sue Ripsch started her professional life as a registered nurse. For the last several years she has also been working with chainmaille jewelry. Sue has been sharing and teaching students the art of chainmaille in Wisconsin, Illinois and Las Vegas, Nevada. She loves seeing the expressions of joy and satisfaction on her students' faces when they each develop a piece of jewelry beauty. Sue has finished pieces for sale in galleries in Las Vegas, NV and Sedona, AZ. Sue has become so involved with chainmailling that her husband, Steve, now makes the sterling and gold jump rings for each of her pieces. He has reached the point that he also offers the rings for sale and has begun making specialty rings such as his 2-tone twisted chain link. Together they travel to national shows where Sue teaches and shares her chainmaille knowledge and Steve assists in teaching and polishes the finished pieces. |  |
