Royelle's Olivine Gold Keshi Cuff, with extra crystals from Royelle's stash

Royelle's Olivine Gold Keshi Cuff, with extra crystals from Royelle's stash

These pictures are from my Keshi Pearl class on Friday, Aug. 21st. I think we all had a good time and we were certainly entertained by the Houston “contingent” – those ladies are a hoot!! Royelle, you are one of a kind, what we northerners think of as ladies of the wild west!!
Thank you Taresa, Lynn, Jennifer, Susan, Kathie, Glynna, Royelle & Kathleen for taking my class – I hope you enjoyed it. I know I enjoyed working with you all. Please send me pictures of your finished pieces and I will post them on the website.
More pictures tomorrow…

Me at Bead Fest 2009 Philadelphia

Me at Bead Fest 2009 Philadelphia

Here is the first of many pictures from Bead Fest 2009. I look tired (I am) but the lighting was really weird and I look almost scarry! I had a great time at my first national show and my first ever “Meet the Teachers Reception.” A very big “THANK YOU” to everyone who purchased one of my cuff or earring kits!

I am returning today from BeadFest Philadelphia, what a trip it was in so many ways. I will post pictures from the Keshi Pearl Class and a couple others. A big thank you to Debra Weld who gratiously allowed me to room with her and pick her brain, she was the best!

Magic Carpet Ride bracelet

Magic Carpet Ride bracelet

Here is a photo of one of my submittals to teach at 2010 Bead & Button show. I worked on this design for quite a while, taking it apart and trying to finish it properly. It uses right-angle weave and lots embellishment. Let me know what you think of the design.
