Monday Bead and Jewelry Updates

I got three very interesting updates in my e-mail box today!

1. Connie Fox - as mentioned in a previous post, tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. PST is when registration for Connie's classes begins. Classes book up fast, so have your desired classes ready (with alternates, just in case), and be ready to call right at 9 a.m. PST (that is 11 a.m. CST and 12 noon EST).

2. Sharilyn Miller - If you make wire jewelry, then you probably know Sharilyn Miller (if you don't, check out her wire and jewelry class website here). Here e-mail newsletter was chock full of updates, including the release of her new instructional DVD on Bohemian Bangles, in addition to her other instructional DVD's covering other wire jewelry techniques. Sharilyn's newsletter also announced the remainder of her 2007/early 2008 workshop schedule, and I hope to take one of her classes. The most exciting tidbit of information was about a Wire Art Jewelry Intensive, taking place in September 2008 - IN SANTORINI, GREECE! For more information, stop by Sharilyn's site at the link above. And if you don't already own her book Bead on a Wire, you really need to look at it!

3. Kim Miles announced her new lampwork beads, Memorial Beads. These beads are a different way to memorialize your loved ones who have passed, as she infuses a small amount of cremains into the bead. It is a beautiful way to keep your loved one near you all the time.
