Hello everyone!
Weird summer weather but hope you are still enjoying the sunshine!
To my new subscribers and future students – Welcome!
To all of you, I sooo look forward to seeing you! Pepper and Ezzy too!
I am making a glass order, glass packs, bevels and more! Will arrive in about 2 weeks? The studio will be full! Not sure where to put it, I guess I will just wing it when it arrives. Haha./(That’s assuming we can get it in the house.)
Here is the schedule for upcoming workshops and courses. I hope that these dates work for you for the ones you are interested in. Please call for more info if needed, or check out my website for descriptions, requirements and prices. I always seem to make at least one mistake Lol! Cinnamon coffee, music and house tours are of course included!

Private Workshop/Class
Private classes are available for help in designing, colour/glass selection, soldering and other techniques. This can be cost effective and very productive as I am totally focused on you and your project. I keep you on track, as my fee is $90 per hour.
Chitchat
Phew, we had some hot days! Hope you, your family and gardens were okay!
David has been working on the stairs – they are beautiful!
The railings are a challenge and still in progress. Never thought of that when I designed 3 floors! He found a wonderful welder, a wonderful supplier for the wood and a wonderful powder coat place! So much work and many trips up and down the stairs. I made 9 windows for the tower – the first one was exciting – not so for the next 8! 18 Handy Hangers and 18 lengths of chain to put on! And 18 holes with hooks to hang them! LOL They have 3” all around of window showing so we can still see outside. Here is a pic of the two lamps that hang under the stairs. There is a floating panel on the bottom, so you do not see the light bulb!
So many cucumbers – even tried Julia Childs’ cooked version! Soso. I was cleaning up the plants and found a pickling cucumber 91/2” long and 3 ½ “wide hiding in the tomatoes! That’s one big dill pickle!
Just a Reminder
No room to work at home? Want some company? You can come and work in the studio if you would like, Wed. to Sat. from noon to 6:00, no need to call first, you just might have to wait a sec until I clean a spot for you! May not be available if I am teaching! I sometimes work until at least 9:00 pm on those days, so evenings can work too if this better for you. Just let me know. $5/hr includes grinder time. FREE for current students. No instruction or teaching – not fair to the other students! Tools available as well if needed. Please call for more info.
