Classes, Catalog and Weekend Beading Oh My!

Well as I said last post I was working on what to say for each piece in a the Catalog that Barry made for me.

So if you look at the picture from last post and imagine this next to it on the page:

Perfect for any occasion! This is set was made for a bridal party. The bracelets
and earring for the bridesmaids and the necklace for the flower girls. All can
be tailored to fit your special occasion.
The blue goldstone gives off a
silvery shimmer.

And then for this bracelet: "Under the Sea"

Under the Sea -- the blues and greens in this bracelet are inspired by visions of moonlight deep in the depths of the ocean water. The blues and greens shimmer and seem to change color in the light. Small fish and star fish swim between the strands of these bracelets.

Also this last week I worked on getting a class together for the NAA Jewelry
club. We have about 20 people signed up so far and more and more keep
responding. It has gone from one class to two classes now. (Both on the same
day... one at lunch and one after work.) The wonderful Mythical Magpie is
going
to teach the class! :D Here is her blog to see some of her stuff: http://mythicalmagpie.blogspot.com/

She will be teaching a beginner polymer bead making class.

I'm excited. The class will be on the 27th! Woot.

I just came back from Cleveland on Friday night and I was inspired. I was able to do 2 wire necklaces - beaded crochet and one Sun Necklace.

The special thing about the Sun necklace is that is stretched my boundaries. I tend to stick with colors I am comfortable with. (Blue, Green, Black, Red) This one has a Sun focal bead that was orange, so I made a multi strand necklace with bright orange and brown and copperish colors. :) Pictures to come soon.

This seems like a super long post so time to wrap it up! :D Let me know what you think of the blurbs.
