Greetings!
 
I hope that this Newsletter finds you well and happy.  I have finally gotten into enjoying this winter which is really an unusual one.  I call it our  Now you see it Now you don't winter. 
We have had more and more snow and then a week of weather in
the sixties with flooding
 
              winter ice
 
  And today new snow is  falling  and ice is forming in the river.
 
For this Newsletter, I have some great photos from a class I taught  ceramic pendants and beads-- a Brownie Troop--in my  Designer Gallery and some new Ceramic heart pendants and some plans for future classes.  
Future Ceramic Bead and Pendant Artists             
 
 
       Last fall I taught ceramic bead and pendant making to a Brownie Troop.  These young ladies were wonderfully creative and enthusiastic. Their finished jewelry is phenomenal.  I have posted an album featuring their creations in my Designer Gallery. And each one sent me a thank you note.  So nice to be creative and have good manners too. Thank you all for the wonderful time making beads and for your thoughtful thank yous.  It was a great experience.

Classes
 
I will be teaching a class in Felted Bead Making at the new and wonderful Fiber Options store in April.  More about this next newsletter.
I am also planning to teach a ceramic bead making and/or glazing class ( you can opt to take one or both days) at my studio in May.
 
Please contact me by email mary@maryhardingjewelry.com  if you are interested in any of these classes.  For the ceramic bead making classes, I am open to suggestions about dates.
 
I hope you will check out the Designer Gallery and if you make anything with one of my pieces please send me a picture and I will be happy to include your work in the Designer Gallery.
