Yesterday I was contacted by Tunde from KOZO studio and gallery to say that my docility had been successful for the Winter/Christmas exhibition that she is organising so I was very animated. Twelve selected artists have been chose for this well organised anyway in the reality which is running at the KOZO Gallery in Thomastown, Co. Kilkenny from 19th November until 31st January. This means that both this demo and ‘Breaking Out’ run at the same time which is brilliant for me, confidently it will also mean that more people may be interested in learning the fascinating skilfulness of felting!

Glazed Paper Beads
I promised I would release you how to make Glazed Paper Beads. They are simple and fun to make. And everyone will be amazed that these beads are in fact made out of paper.
I wanted to share with you the You Tube video that Suze Weinberg did for Ranger Industries. These fast beads are her creation, so who better to explain how to make them. However....I tried numerous times to embed the video into my pylon and it failed all 116 times (okay, not quite that many). I can get other videos to embed, so perhaps there's something with the Ranger ones.
So, I'm going to give you a quick run-down of how to make these and then straightforward you to Suze's video. Suze is great to watch in a video -- she's enchanting and informative.
First, cut out a triangle 10 1/2" x 1 1/2". Roll around a pencil, starting with the widespread off the mark end of the traingle, and secure the tip with some Glossy Accents. Once dry, pull the script bead off the pencil and get your clear UTEE melted in your Melting Pot. Using your impudent tool tweezer, place the ends into the bead and dip into melted UTEE. Lay on a non-immovable craft sheet to dry and don't worry about a flat spot or any bubbles. Once the bead is cooled, you can pick it back up with your tweezers and use or stress tool to work out any perfections. Voila! It's pretty pure.
Now, go to Suze's You Tube video -- it's only three minutes extended and it's the best way to see how to make these little creations. Glazed Newspaper Beads by Suze Weinberg.
