Friday, December 1 - Tragic Heroines Bracelet
This project is named Tragic Heroines because the girl with the red dress reminded me of one of my favorite movie scenes. I am sure you know the scene: Lucy Westenra walking into the garden to fornicate with Dracula on a stone altar, from the 1992 classic, directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Lucy of course becomes a wildly unsuccessful vampire and gets beheaded, but her character steals the show from a very prim and proper Mina. Of course the image doesn't have anything to do with the movie and the dress was a lot more orange and our Lucy was a redhead, but these are small details when a mental leap has already been made.
Saturday, December 2 - Brutalist Ribbitorium
This project combines a bead embroidered pendand with CRAW rings interwoven with velvet cord. This is a full day class with unexpected delights: Green Girl Studios frogs, Rachel's painted skin cab, velvet and Czech beads.
Sunday, December 3 - Southseas' Treasure Bracelet
Southseas' Treasure was originally created for the 2023 Bead Cruise where it was a great success!
It's a small project, a freeform bracelet that's centered around the larimar focal. Each stone is a different shape, and the stone's shape is what influences the general shape of the rest of the center portion of the bracelet. Besides the pretty larimar there is a galaxy cab by Melody Cross, a beautiful three dimensional flower crafted out of rainbow metallic lambskin, freshwater pearls, cup chain and other crystals.
The center portion is affixed to a flat leather band and the closure is a magnetic clasp. Just a very lush, luxurious combination of materials that will make for a relaxing and fun class experience.
