brag time....my first published piece!!!!!

Pin It I've known this for quite some time, but I didn't want to post until
it was really official, but I got a check for it this past week so I
guess it's official now.....DRUM ROLL.....I have a piece that is going
to be in the June issue of Bead & Button. It will be in the tips & techniques page so you might have to get out your magnifiers to see it, but I'm happy all the same. Here's a photo of the piece:

Where has February gone? Not that I care!

Pin It Well, somehow a whole month has come & gone. but, I'm more than ready for spring & the warm weather. YAY!!! I haven't been very good about posting. I always have good intentions, but then somehow time gets away from me.

I have been somewhat busy though. I've been trying to get as much time in on the torch as I can, but with the frigid temps this past month, that hasn't happened an awful lot. I signed up to teach a 4 week course on basic wire jewelry at adult ed. Tonight was the first night & it was a blast. The ladies all seemed to enjoy themselves, frustated though they were at times. They seemed to all get along really well and before we knew it, the session had come to an end.

I also have some very exciting things coming up this summer. My work will be featured in 2 different magazines. One is my personal project, the other is a collaborative piece. We (5 of us) all met on a yahoo group, though never in person & submitted a piece of wearable art to a magazine. I just found out this week that it will be published this summer!

More specifics to come. I don't know if it's permissible to divulge any more info till the magazines come out, but once they do, watch out, LOL!!!
