Perfecting you Craft
The Flaming Hot topic this week is "perfecting your craft". Just let me say, I don't think I'll ever be perfect! I am fortunate to spend alot of time at the torch. Often 4 days a week. I think the constant torching does allow we to get good quality beads holes and symetrical beads. I was once called a "picky" beadmaker in a class! I like my bead holes to be nice and even, no sharp edges ever, and my beads to be balanced. After that I strive for something that flows, catches the eye and that's unique. I have also had the joy of taking alot of classes! I love learning, it gives me the chance to try something outside my comfort zone. It also gives me the chance to play with all my great beadmaking friends!

I'm going to start saving up for some classes myself. I think learning from someone else can often take your own work in an unexpected direction, and well, that's just a whole lotta fun!
