It was wonderful wasn't it. Ms Melly is so generous with her knowledge and Janet and Karl are such generous hosts that it just makes for a wonderful workshop.

I feel like I have spent the weekend with wonderful friends.

Can't recommend this workshop enough to anyone no matter if they are a beginner or advanced as there is always something new to learn.

Hey Janet and Esme - I'm so jealous. It sounds like you had a fantastic time. What did you make?? Can't wait to see.

Didn't ms mellie bring her tumbler???? It should be part of the course fee ; including entertainment while waiting for tumbler to finish the job.

With the vibratory tumbler I tumble all beads and pendants - round or flat. The shape is not altered. That was the main reason for me getting this type.

Janet those photos look fantastic! I can't believe how lovely the colour looks in my landscape piece-heaps better than in real life but maybe I need to take a closer look at it.

Thanks for loading the photos.

I just LOVE those ruffle beads-so cute and delicate.
And beautiful landscapes too!

Hmmmm, I wonder if we could squeeze in ruffle beads when Mel comes to Perth next year..............

Zarina we would thoroughly recommend the ruffle class as it has so much potential once you know the basics. You can see from the photos how different everyone's beads turned out and that was just from the first class. Do the landsacpe class as well as there is lots to learn with that one and again there is so much potential once you get the basics.
