December Meeting


Hello to everyone! I hope you have had some time to make some new creations over the last few weeks. Make sure to bring your filed and ready to fire BronzClay pieces back to our next meeting so I can take them home and fire them for you. Kay has offered to host our next meeting at her house. Contact her at: ckaynpat@cox.net for her address. Please bring a snack to share and if you'd like to share some wine, that would be fun too! I'm looking forward to seeing you all soon! This is one of my new jewelry creations from the BronzClay. I have to say that it was easier seeing it in my mind than putting it altogether. See you soon!

Make a Christmas Wish at Milliande!

http://www.milliande.com/Mixed-Media-Artists-Christmas-Wishlist.html
Hey if you haven't checked out milliande, a site dedicated just to women artists, you don't know what you are missing! Check it out, this is the site I told you about that has a Christmas Ornament exchange going on called a Wichtel! Now you have a chance to make a Christmas Wish List and maybe get yours picked as a winner!

It was great getting together with you all last week! I had fun making some new BronzClay pendants with you all! Next meeting is at Kay's house, the 2nd Thursday of next month in December. A private e-mail will be sent to members who will be attending the meeting at her house! Please RSVP to me if you will attend next month's meeting! Thanks!

BronzClay


Well, I finally finished three BronzClay pieces, and I already sold one of them! I'm looking forward to making some more pieces, and I plan on working with the BronzClay at our 1st meeting for this year. If you e-mail Sharon Rogow and let her know you want to purchase some BronzClay from her, I'll bet she makes sure to bring some! I'll be glad to fire your pieces for you if you don't have a kiln.

Sharon also attended the Metal Clay Conference and she will be sharing the information she learned there with all of us on that day

Sharon's e-mail is: sharon@beadlover.com

Hope to see you there!

Date: Thursday, Nov. 12th
Time: 6 - 8p.m.
Place: City of the World Gallery
1229 Casino Center Blvd.
Las Vegas, NV 89104

We met at the City of the World Gallery and split the cost of a $25.00 rental fee between all the members who showed up.
