Notes and News - May 4, 2009

--- COME SEE ME AT THE BEAD & BUTTON SHOW! ---
Yes, I've been MIA here on the front page of my website. But the "Glass Lab" is buzzing with activity! There are lots of beads coming out of the kiln that aren't destined for my Etsy shop just yet. They'll be heading to Milwaukee so that you can see them "up close and personal" and purchase them there. I'll have leaves - glorious leaves of many types and colors - as well as focal beads and bead sets. Nanette and I will have Poppy Slider kits for you, and you'll also be able to purchase my fiber work! Come see me from June 4 through June 7 in Booth 1221!
Upcoming Events - Come See Me!
I"ll be in Miami this summer (Miami in summer? OY!) at the ISGB Bead Bazaar! Come see me on July 25 in the Ballroom at the Hyatt Regency Miami!
Upcoming Classes in Glass and Fiber
>> My bead making classes at the Bay Area Glass Institute have been scheduled through the end of 2009! I'm offering Beadmaking 1, Beadmaking 2, and a new class called Beadmaking: Working With Metals. Coming later this year will be classes on making Hearts, Floral Beads, and Fish Beads. Want to take classes with me? Check out my SCHEDULE! To sign up for the beadmaking classes, contact Chris at BAGI: (408-993-2244).
>> I've had so many requests to teach felting classes that I'm now gearing up to hold small classes in my "Wet Lab". I'm hoping to start these classes later this summer, and I already have a large sign-up list. If you would like to be included on my email list for these classes, call or write to let me know!
