Congratulations ladies! Cindy will be in touch with you or you can get in touch with her ...
Now, on with the show! I have really enjoyed getting to know Laura. We've giggled a lot over the past couple of years ... in classes I've given and classes I've taken when Laura and I were students. My daughter's name is even "Laura." We found out that we have a lot in common. I don't know if you saw the photos Laura posted on her blog of her studio during the "cleaning up" phase ... I thought, "OMG! She's me!" There was jewelry stuff, a sewing machine, pottery stuff ... which is my creative history!
When Laura said that she was drawn to the No-Solder Bezel project, I thought, "That's great!" But, I had no idea how much she liked it! LOL Look at these! But you must go to her blog because there's much, much more! Laura, your success with these bezels is definitely a pat on my head!

As a tribute to Laura's love of pottery, we're giving away these porcelain beads that have been torch-fired! Yes, you heard me right ... these are clay beads that I've torch-fired with enamel like I do a metal bead.
