I want to thank everyone who has visited my blog over the past week. I hope you have enjoyed what I’ve done so far and continue to. Remember, if there is anything you want to ask, request a certain class or just want to check in, e-mail me at ejh_creativearts@yahoo.com.
I have updated the photos of the pan chang bail now so they are much easier to see. Yes, this means that I have a new camera, have figured out how to use it, have successfully downloaded my photos onto the computer and know how to insert them into the blog. I feel like I’ve learned a lot over the past week!
The title of my post today is a lead in to what my plans are for the blog. Since I have so much to get accomplished prior teaching my various classes, I need to schedule my time carefully. Intially, I will be doing one posting to my blog each week by the end of the day on Monday. It will most likely be all-encompassing as I’ll add information about new projects I’m working on, classes, things I’ve picked up on my travels and the like.
Before I get into a few projects I’ve been working on, I want to introduce you to one member of my pride of mini-lions.
This is Porsche. This is her favorite spot to be when I’m in the craft room working. From her perch, she can keep a close eye on what I’m doing and if anything hits the floor whether it be a bead or some cord, she considers it hers and is on it before I can pick it up.
Regarding classes, I have had to move the Tassel class on 2 July as David just informed me that we are leaving for New Zealand a few days earliler than I had planned. I have rescheduled it for 23 July. I also have a few other new classes to schedule in and I think I’m going to wait until the summer is over as everyone seems to be incredibly busy for the next few months. That said, if you are here in HK and looking for something to do, please do get ahold of me and I’m always happy to add something in. I’m away from 1-18 July and then here for the remainder of the summer.
On the Knot Lesson page, I have put the class outlines in alphabetic order for ease of finding one that you are interested in. I am also starting to add photos to a few to give you a visual of what the class will entail.
To take the pan chang bail one step farther, I did up this one with a great glass bead I’ve had for ages and then knotted a string of pearls from Jamila. I’m quite pleased with the way it turned out and have received quite a few compliments on it over the past week.
Another project I put together is this Chinese Brocade fabric and chinese knot evening bag. I made this for a very dear friend who is leaving HK shortly. Chinese Knots are so very versatile and can be used for any number of projects. I will be doing a lot more of the fabric/knot projects to show you the possibilities.
Well, that’s me for the week. Until next time…
