I hope this holiday finds everyone enjoyinga relaxed day. And I think most of us are more likely to be firing up the BBQ rather than the torch today.

So with that said, I will be brief, just thought I would send a few reminders for upcoming events in the area...

August 2nd & 3rd
Bead Society of San Diego County (BSSDC) will be hosting their annual bead bazaar, this is a good one! www.sdbeadsociety.org

August 7th thru the 10th
ISGB Gathering in Oakland CA. Annual ISGB conference in our “backyard”! Take advantage of how close this amazing event is to us!
more info: www.isgb.org/index.shtml

Our June meeting at The Mandrel was really fun! Karen Hardy and Susan Walter each demoed silver wire techniques including the Viking knit and creating bails from heavy wire. The new Lampwork Etc. Tutorials and Tips Book,which Karen Hardy had a HUGE part in putting together, is now available on: www.lulu.com/content/2560502.

Our next meeting will be on September 20th at Brea Bead Works.

Be sure to check the SCFS website soon for this update along with photos. While you’re there, check out the “Classes” page with up to date info on classes/events in your local area!

Susan Walter is our newest Featured Artist! Next quarter, it could be YOU! For more info, contact our FA chair, Barbara Birbeck at barbbbeads@att.net

Have a wonderful holiday weekend and we hope to see you soon!
