Autumn
is Here!
|
| Autumn has officially
arrived! Of course, being in Florida, unless we pay close attention to
the calender we have to stop by a craft store (or supermarket) to check
out what's on display to be sure of which season's here. We don't get
much of a change of colors or weather. Fall is my busiest time of
the year....lots of events going on here. |
| • |
| I've been busy, busy,
busy spending many hours at the bench creating great new jewelry
pieces. I'll soon be launching new scarf pins — after all, it
is Fall. My muse has been in high gear so look for keep an eye out here
and my eBay store
for lots of lots of new
necklaces and bracelets also. |
| • |
| Check out my new Etsy
store for jewelry designers called hodgepodgerie
Necessities. This is
where I'm offering all things necessary for your wire jewelry designs.
Check back often as cool new stuff will be added daily...or near-daily
:) |

| I recently enjoyed the
honor of being the featured artist at the Sterling Society's monthly Coffee
and Conversation. The Sterling Society actively promotes
the
growth of the Dunedin Fine Art Center (DFAC) and promotes interest and
participation in the activities at the center. I had to speak for a
whole hour. My students informed me that it would be no problem for me.
Hmm...not quite sure what they meant by that. :) |
| • |
| I've got lots of classes
scheduled at the DFAC. Check out the Fall calender
for details. For
those who live a bit south of the Tampa Bay area, I'm offering a 2 day
Basic Wire Jewelry workshop at Firebug
Designs in Venice on November 1-2. |
| • |
| On October 25th I will
have several specially designed pieces available for purchase at A
Taste of Good Hope, a benefit sponsored by the Hospice of
the Florida Suncoast
to benefit their sister hospice in Sub-Saharan Africa. Details and registration here.
Come join us
for "an exquisite evening of wire, art and jazz" to help a terrific
cause! |

| November 1st begins the
DFAC's annual holiday show, this year titled Great
Expectations, where
my handcrafted jewelry designs will be on display (and available for
sale) in the gallery
through December 23rd. |

| On Tuesday November 20th
I'll be joining the Leading Ladies of
Ruth Eckerd Hall Foundation
as a guest speaker for their monthly luncheon. The
Leading Ladies are community ambassadors for the arts education
programs of the Marcia P. Hoffman Performing Arts Institute, and
support the philosophy of education for life through the arts. |
|
| Enjoy the rest of your week
and, for all you wire enthusiasts, happy wiring! |
