Glass Beads

beadclass.jpgTonight was my first glass beadmaking class with Tom Stanton at the Holy City Art Studio in Los Gatos (through the Los Gatos-Saratoga Community Education and Recreation Department).

Here are the first beads we made:

Mine is the smallest green one, all the way on the right

Here's Amanda working on her bead (she looks SO familiar for some reason... maybe that she looks like Becca Fishaut?)

Here are the materials I need to go find before next week's class. Apparently there's a great store in Santa Cruz ("Kiss My Glass") that sells a started kit with everything but the Mapp Gas, which I can get at Home Depot.

Emily - How awesome are you! Glass bead class - cool! Bring your beads for Show & Tell to the knitting group. I'm very interested to hear how the class goes.

That class sounds REALLY cool! I told Ray about it, and he said he didn't know why I wasn't taking a class like that. :O

He also thinks it sounds cool because of the fire involved. ;)
