Erika's Weekend Beadaway

What a cutie!  Erika came from the Lansing area for lessons in July of 2005, and I can honestly say I've NEVER seen anyone with so much enthusiasm for learning this craft!  She was (and is) a joy to be around!  She's moving soon, so hopefully I'll have the pleasure of meeting up with her in Louisiana!  The next ISGB annual conference is there next year............hmmmmmm, maybe I can stay with her?

Anyway, here are some of her beauties from her weekend!  Can't wait to see where she blossoms from here!  Good luck to you Erika, and please stay in touch!

Check out her website too....she's one talented young lady!

It's not everyone that can look this cute in these glasses!  You ARE stylin' girlfriend!
"I was so nervous to try lampworking, but Chris made me feel at ease. She is such a wonderful and talented person. I enjoyed every moment of learning from her.  I don't think I could have found a better teacher for my first lesson. I look forward to spending more time and talks with Chris.
 
Thank you so much for everything including all the yummy goodies & Austin's super comfy bed!
I hope to keep in touch with you. Paul and I are probably moving to Louisiana in Aug.

Thanks so so so so much!!!
