Jeanette and I are excited to kick off the new year by offering a new artBLISS mini retreat.  We’re welcoming our two favorite Texans, Diane Cook and Deryn Mentock – designers who are known for their big hearts and big talent (they say everything is big in TX!).  The round-up will take place over two days in March – something fun to look forward to during these chilly winter days.

Here’s the lowdown:

March 22-23,  2014
Sterling, VA

 

Deryn’s workshops:  Eruption Fold Form Cuffs and Prairie Pearl Pod Pendant

Diane’s workshops:  Stix and Stones and Ruffled Poppies

 

We’ll get together after class on Saturday for good old-fashioned socializing!  Relax with your friends old and new, as well as mingle with your instructors.  We’re thrilled that Deryn will be signing her book, The Jewelry Maker’s Design Book:  An Alchemy of Objects. There will be door prizes with extra chances to win if you wear your boots!

Diane made up a blog badge for us – please help us share the word about Boots & Bliss!

 

 Come dressed for the West and join us for a stompin’ good time (just couldn’t resist the lingo!)!  🙂
