Introduction | My sister dragged me - kicking and screaming - to a lampwork bead class. It was a one-day intensive course in Branford and within the first hour, I was hooked. Since then I have taken a few classes - my favorite class was with Cynthia Saari at the Brookfield Craft Center. Additional classes include a borosilicate class with Nancy Tobey, a shaping class with Lauri Copeland, and a metal bead class with Pauline Warg at Metalworks in MA. I was recently featured in a book by Quarry Press called '1000 Jewelry Inspirations.' The most recent class I took was a 2-day intensive that focused on making hand forged, metal beads (sterling, bronze, and copper). My jewelry is available at www.LavenderDawn.etsy.com. Also of note, you can see some of my finished pieces in the 1/14 edition of 'Making Jewellery' (UK) magazine, a tutorial on making a hollow bead in the same magazine in Feb, and will be featured in the UK book 'Making Jewellery' in 2011. |
