Winter Gem Show Adventures, Day 3

Emma is back in Falls Church now, but she has one last gem show post for us.  Read on to see and hear about an amazing glass bead artist at the show… an artist who just might be visiting soon!

During this trip, we also went to several shows with glass artists all over the country.

 

We met up with Cleo Buchanan, who you may recognize from our glass bead artist trunk show last August.

Didn’t make it to the show? Well, don’t worry, we have another show planned for the spring!  (Please note that the dates currently listed are subject to change.)  You can keep up with all our latest news and events by joining our email list or by liking us on Facebook.
