It's been ages

Seems like it's been ages since I last blogged....and in fact it has.  In early May I squirreled myself away to work up samples for the Bead and Button classes that Cris and I taught.  The show has come and gone so quickly.  And now my schedule is filled with a couple dozen other projects that need to be completed. 

But first...the show...  During the first 4 days Cris, Yiyi and I took a Master's class with the incomparable Celie Fago


We worked with sterling metal clay making rings. Great class and lovely clay.  It may actually draw me back into silver.  I love rings and have always wanted to make them to round out my repertoire of jewelry...necklaces, earrings, bracelets and now rings.  Below is a sampling of the rings we made in class.


Below are the 5 rings that I made in class.
 




 
And with every Master's Class comes the graduation dinner.

There were beads and buttons on the table so of course...we all made jewelry.
