I just finished my samples for fall classes at Ben Franklin Crafts, my local shop. The challenge was to design interesting projects with a good teaching value, but keep the overall materials cost reasonable and to use products available in the store. Here's what I came up with. What do you think?
Although there's snow on the ground and a chill in the air, I've been thinking spring as I design beginner projects for my local craft shop. Here's a sneak peek, and if you're in the area, the schedule opens up in January!

Key to My Heart Bracelet and Necklace set (lots of loop practice!):

Here's wishing you a little sunshine, and a very merry, happy, warm and fuzzy holiday!
What a great day. Thanks to everyone who came to see me on Saturday at Ben Franklin. I loved meeting new beaders, hearing about projects, answering questions, and visiting with such interesting, crafty people. Don't forget to enter my giveaway!
Do you ever see something in a store and think, "I like it, but I'd rather see it in a different color or size..." Well, that's the story of my life. I'm always fiddling around with ideas and trying to make things just right for me.
