Rainy Days and Makin' Stuff

Yes, it's winter. In Southern California we're not good at cold weather. That's why we're here. Well, outside it's cold and rainy and all I want to do is sit in front of my kiln and make beads. It's warm there...

Taught a heart themed class this past Saturday, Valentine's Day, at Lighthouse Stained Glass in Hollywood. A good time was had by all. I'll teach there again in April on the 18th. Come join us for hot glass fun!

I've been making a lot of really cute beads lately that I'm going to post on etsy today. And I've been macraméing up a storm. Is that a word? Macraméing? It is now. So I've finally started posting some of my macramé necklaces on etsy too. It's about time. And I'm working on a kit for my donut necklace that'll be available soon. Whoo hoo!

I've recently upgraded my screen printing equipment and am expecting good things to be printed soon. The kits and t-shirts and other goodies will be available at my new etsy store, pixieindustries.etsy.com. It'll be a craft general store of sorts selling supplies, both handmade and commercial, t-shirts, jewelry making kits and whatever else suits my fancy. It should be fun.

Now it's time for beads...and isn't it time for you to go make something?
