I must admit...

that I love jewelry making t

ools, especially these beautiful hammers made by Bill Fretz.  In my eyes, they are works of art in themselves.  I've been collecting them for several years and each time I shop the floor at the Bead&Button show, I see additional hammers that are looking for a home on my workbench.  Having eight hammers in my present collection, it's easy to confuse which style of hammer I already own when shopping.  This time around I've taken a photo of my collection to have with me when I shop so I won't duplicate a hammer I already have or pass up one that I think I have, only to find that I don't.   I should probably do likewise with other tools and materials I might duplicate by mistake, but I think that would require toting a photo album with me!
