Floral Medallion Class with Czechmates SuperDuos

We had a cancellation in Friday night's Burgeoning Blossom class.  If you are interested (or want to switch from Saturday to Friday night), please let us know.

Bead Street's recent class on our Floral Medallion was a great success.  Gals worked really hard on this difficult pattern but got pretty far in their progress.  Can't wait to see the other finished bracelets.

Great fall colorway with SuperDuos
and Czech glass rounds.

This project works well with a button as a clasp.



We had three students that wanted to create the original turquoise and bronze colors

Kathy wasn't too happy with her first choice of colors
until she got farther along.
I think absolutely beautiful bracelet
,


Created by Amanda - a new beginning beader.
She also selected beautiful colors and
did wonderful work for one of her first projects.

Beaded with translucent CzechMates SuperDuos,
I thought it looked like a different pattern.
Love these colors.

This class will be repeated again in December.  If you would like to learn this pattern, stop in and let us know.  You can click on CLASSES in the above header to see a list of other classes already scheduled.

We had a very exciting and busy weekend.  We had a full house for both Saturday classes  and have scheduled a couple of overflow classes.

October 23rd, Wednesday, from 1:00 to 3:00 another Lentille Bracelet class created by Adele Kimpell.

The gals had a great time with this one and
 many started a second bracelet.
Don't remember who started this one
but hopefully will get photos whenever it is completed.
