Well, tomorrow I'll be leaving to take some jewelry design classes in Seattle Washington. I'm excited to learn some new techniques. I'll make sure to post pictures of the results when I get back. The Puget Sound Bead Festival is being held at the same time, so hopefully I'll find some new and unique beads to add to my designs. I'm always on the look out for something that is out of the ordinary. The last really interesting bead I got was a freeform boro bead that became the center piece of "Mermaid"; which can be seen on my necklace page http://www.piecesofclass.net/Necklaces.html I've gotten a lot of great feedback on that piece. I think it's because the bead is beautiful.

Come back in a few days to see if I found anything interesting in my travels to Seattle.
