Say Hello to Laura, everybody…

March 29, 2008

I stopped by the Bead Expo this afternoon to visit my friend Laura. She’s there with her gorgeous fused glass pendants.

Laura has had a jewelry business for years, but last year, she had a creative epiphany. She went to work for a local glass company and discovered the wonders of fusing glass. She got deeply [...]

Mmmmm . . . Bead Expo

March 28, 2008

Interweave’s Bead Expo is happening in Portland through Sunday, and it’s a great time for those of us who love the sparkly stuff.

There are so many booths that resemble this one – literally piles and piles of beads, and hanks and hanks hanging on walls, and tubes and tubes in racks. The explosion of [...]

Love that mail-carrier!

March 28, 2008

What a wonderful Mail Day yesterday! This intriguing package arrived from Sarah.

(I gave her one million Cool Points for writing this on the label. And I startled one of my neighbors by bursting out laughing at the mailbox.)

OOh, what can it be . . .

I was jumping up and down – one of Sarah’s [...]

My custom yarn says hi…

March 27, 2008

Here’s what I did most of yesterday – crocheted with my super-fantastic Yarnia yarn. My messenger bag is coming along nicely.

I’m grateful that Lindsey advised me to start with a wool blend, so that the individual strands would “stick” together a bit. This helped me keep from splitting the strands while I figured out the [...]

Watch Portlanders Make Stuff!

March 26, 2008

Three of my favorite Portland makers recently did excellent crafty TV spots on our local morning show, AM NW. The show has posted videos to its website, so I wanted to share. (You gotta follow the links – I can’t embed the vids here.)
Up top, Bridget did a demo of her super-cool recycled bike tire [...]

Escher-esque, isn’t it?

March 26, 2008

Hey, locals -

If I’ve managed not to reach you with this message already, then I’ll let you know: I’m teaching another series of classes in Blogging as a Way to Market Your Crafty Business.

The 101 beginner class is April 5th, and the 102 intermediate class is April 13th. You can take either or both. Just [...]

Bead Simple! It’s Here!

March 25, 2008

Today is an exciting day – Bead Simple is here! My dear friend Susan has created one beautiful and useful book.

I’ve always loved Susan’s jewelry, because it keeps things uncluttered and shows off beautiful beads. I haven’t bought many jewelry-making books, because so often they seem to fall into one of two camps: the sort [...]

Springtime at Make It Mine

March 24, 2008

The new issue of Make It Mine has been out for a bit, and I just got a chance to check it out. Lots of good things, including:

A feature about Portland’s own LeBrie Rich, who’s an uber-felter. Her company, PenFelt, is all about gorgeous fiber-based things. In fact, I was lucky enough to interview LeBrie [...]

You Make My Day!

March 23, 2008

Happy Easter, everyone. I don’t celebrate the religious aspects of this holiday myself, but always enjoy it as a celebration of Springtime and renewal. (Which makes this morning’s soggy weather a little ironic – did I mention the joys of March in the Northwest?)

Anyway, Alice, who is a rock star to me, gave me a [...]
