That's why I only got a tiny bit of material. I figure a $13 experiment
won't break me g, and the tools I got can be used with polyclay, as
well, so they won't go to waste.

I got info on a class in my area, but it's not until October, costs more
than I spent on tools and PMC and would take approximately four hours of
transportation time, there and back.

Cheers,
Carla

PC is easy to learn on your own and make canes from. PMC is the silver. So
very easy to mix up those two's initials. I do not advise self teaching for
PMC. It has some quirks, and the material is too expensive for a lot of
goofs.

Thanks for saying that. Everything I've done beadwise is
self-taught, and I was hoping to teach myself PMC. However, I
discovered that there are PMC classes at a nearby art museum. I
think I'd rather take the classes than waste the material.

After DH told me another one of mine looked sloppy, I had to do it better.

Holy cow bells! I love those hearts!

They're very vintage-romantic-wallpaper, aren't they? LOVELY.

Carla, is that the Bead in Hand class?

How far are you from Highland Park? They have quite a few places with
classes IIRC and if you see classes going for around $300 or $400,
those are for certification. You want to find an introduction class.

Oh man. I don't think anyone has ever called anything I've made lovely.
I'm tearing up now.

Yep, that's the one. A friend lives in Oak Park, and she was showing me
how to get there on public transit. It's about an hour and forty
minutes (a lot of that would be spent waiting on a bus to get to the
train station).

I'm not real familiar with the suburbs, at all. I know the ones closest
to me are Evanston and Skokie (north, northwest), and Oak Park (west).

classes IIRC and if you see classes going for around $300 or $400,
those are for certification. You want to find an introduction class.


I checked at my LBS and they gave me the number for a local arts center.
I'll be calling there tomorrow.

Cheers,
Carla

Oh no. That's not good.

Which LBS is yours?
