May Bead Society Program: Walking

Walking in Another Artist's Shoes!

​Our guest speaker/instructor, Sylvia Humphrey is going to lead a "make and take" workshop at our Tuesday, May 12th Bead Society Program Meeting. She will talk a little about her artwork, but we will all get to make a Chunky By Design art piece or creation. Everyone brings their own tools and spare chunky or unique beads and decorations. We will supply some art materials as well.

This is reservation only because we need to plan for materials and tables. There will be limited space. 
Members have priority! Members will get an email, others can email [email protected] to see if there are spots available. This will be in the Kaizuka Room of the Veterans Memorial Complex, 4117 Overland, Culver City at 7:15 pm.  

Here is what you need to bring: 
Supplies

-Jewelry mat (so beads don't roll off table)
-tools (pliers, cutter, needle nose, scissors, hole punch if making leather necklace)
-their own large beads or ethnic beads and pendants but I will have some beads to select or add to
-Closure (S hook, lobster claw, etc)
- heavy duty beading wire (49 strands)
- glue E6000
-crimping pliers
-crimp tubes #2
-jump rings close and open
- waxed cotton cord 
- thin leather cord

If you do not want to participate, you would be free to observe. Be sure to indicate that on the RSVP. 

So step out of your comfort zone! Walk on the wild side! It will be great fun and collaborative!

We will carry this over to the June 9th meeting by making a beaded wall art creation or beaded wind chimes.

Elections are taking place at this meeting. If you can't attend in person, be sure to log in via Zoom to vote.
