February 2022 ZOOM Meeting - CANCELLED

Important announcement: FEBRUARY MEETING IS CANCELLED

We did not meet the artist's requirement for minimum registrations, so we have to cancel the class and meeting. Those who registered will get their patterns via separate email from Owl Be Beading.

Meeting Details:

Barbara Talijan of Owl Be Beading will be coming back to teach us how to make a beautiful beaded egg casing. You will make a mesh base that you will then embellish with three different accent beads from kits in a choice of colors or from your own stash.

This egg also has its own built-in stand and an optional ornament hanger you can add to it.  We will use real eggs, but you can also use plastic or glass eggs the size of a chicken egg.  Since no two eggs are alike, you will have to make adjustments to the finishing rows.

There are five colorways available.  However, due to some supply issues there are currently only three of each colorway available.  If we need more, Barbara will try to make up more kits, depending on supply availability. So place your orders soon.
