Welcome to the first of many new “Letters to the Editor.” This month, it will be a Letter from the Editor.
My name is Alaina Ackley. and I'm the new Web Content Editor. I'm a business major at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I've been a polymer clay artist for 5 years, now and have a business with my mother, Beth Ackley, called Destined 2 Clay. But enough about me. . . .
With new members elected to the IPCA board, we have many new and exciting ideas planned and I plan to share these ideas, and their progress, with you monthly.

Editor's
Note: Polymergence
is pleased to share with you this excellent article by Chelsea
Clarey, of TangoPig
Jewelry Creations. It is reprinted with permission from the on-line
magazine Making
Jewelry Now.
In addition to creating a line of handmade jewelry and a blog,
Chelsea teaches word-choice seminars for artists who sell their work
on-line.
Using
the Terms "Tribal" and "Ethnic" Accurately in
Your Jewelry Designs
In
addition to being a jewelry artist, I'm an anthropology major, and
one of the consequences of taking these classes is that you start
seeing things in layers that you never really thought about before.
You
should hear me go on and on about material-culture representation in
Disney movies!
But
lately I've been thinking about jewelry terms, and "tribal
jewelry" has caught my attention.
