This weekend, I made my way to Reston Virginia (a four hour drive) to take a class, sponsored by Jeanette Blix and Cindy Wimmer, called Bead Enameling with Barbara Lewis. I'm sure most of you are familiar with her work. It was great! The engineer and I had a pleasant drive down, and a dinner at our hotel before we watched a crazy movie, The Long Kiss Goodnight. It's like an old Mr. and Mrs. Smith, with humor! I had my class on Saturday from 10-4 and my arm literally hurts. Here's some photos of what I made. The people in the class were wonderful, I only burned my shirt and my arm once, I met some nice people and some bloggy people. Jeanette and Cindy are planning some more classes and their web site is going to be called ArtBliss - I'll make sure to let you know when they get it up and running!

I'm taking a class with Melissa Manley at Artfest in just a few weeks, can't wait. I don't know if it's the same sort of thing or different.
I'm going to humm and put my hands on my ears about the burned shirt and self, in case my TORCH TERROR might hear about that!
You did a great job, love the colors, woo hoo!
I know there are many people out there, myself included, who would love to take a similiar class but can't because of location!!!
Enjoy...
Cheers
