FUN WEEKEND - Bead Retreat



This last weekend the Fire and Rain and ORBS chapters had their second annual retreat at Frantz Art Glass. We had demos of bead making, glass colors/types, chain maille and photography.

A HUGE THANKS to Leslie Thiel for organizing the retreat and for Frantz for allowing us to use their facility.

Susan Mason blowing shards (paper thin layers of glass) with Laura Maddams looking on. The second photos is close up of the shards before they are broken up. Just little bubbled of glass.
