SGB Norcal December Holiday Party
This past weekend Martin & I drove out to
Sharon
Peters house for the SOCIETY OF GLASS BEADMAKERS
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA December Holiday Party...We had a silent Auction for
charity, I won 2 awesome beads for a song, pictures below. Linda Benmour
had arranged for a vendor of gemstone and semi-precious beads and
antique silver beads from India to be there.
Janice
Peacock did a demo of CASING & SCULPTING WITH CLEAR
GLASS! There was the Annual Gift Swap, Martin got a great bead picture
below. And everyone brought some food for the big fat juicy potluck,
Sharon supplied all the desserts & drinks and her gorgeous house. We had
lots of fun...besides meeting and revisiting with many glass bead
makers, Martin & I really enjoyed Sharon Peters extensive Glass Bead &
Sculpture Collection, some photos below of her collection...if you would
