Spring Update

Happy Spring everyone!
I wanted to pop in and give you all a little update...






First of all, I am excited to tell you that I am back
working at the Sun Dog Bead Co. part time, and
I'm having a great time being a "Sun Puppy" again!
We've been freshening things up for spring there, so stop
in and say "hi" if you're in the area :-).




Secondly, Juliana can be found selling her beautiful
jewlery, on quite a few Saturdays, this spring and summer
at the Issaquah Farmers Market, starting this Saturday!
(Hopefully we'll have beautiful photos to come on that!)


Thirdly, I wanted to give you a couple of dates for upcoming shows:


1. Jewelry Open House: April 29th & 30th, from 3-7pm, both nights.
Located at Jan Cook Mack's studio in Wenatchee and
featuring jewelry from Jan, Heather Hansen, Siri Healy, and myself.


2. Trunk Show: May 8th from 10am-5pm
Located at the Sun Dog Bead Co.
Featuring jewelry from Juliana and myself.
The Downtown Wine Walk and other events will be going on
this day as well... just in time for a fun Mother's day outing!
I will post an update with more details for the shows soon.
Hope to see you there!

New this Week

I've had some fun this week experimenting with some new designs...
(labradorite & sterling)

I love vintage buttons and I think these simple hoops show them off nicely...


And, I actually made some necklaces this week!
I've been focusing on earrings so much lately that it was fun
to mix it up a bit.

(imperial jasper, pearls, sterling, & leather)

I hope you have a great weekend!

Happy February!

As some of you may know the studio is no longer in Peshastin – Juliana has up and moved to Woodinville! Keeping up with her is like trying to catch a jack rabbit in the desert… just when you think you’ve caught up, she’s gone again!
Don’t despair, Brenda is still in Cashmere and the two of us are scheming up new creative ideas for the season. We’ll keep you posted here about upcoming shows in the Wenatchee Valley and Seattle area. You can also joing our e-mail list to receive notifications.
Please join us February 10th, from 4-7pm, at Jan Cook Mack’s Studio, located at 529 Easy Street in Wenatchee.

The show will include the usual faces – Heather Hansen, Jan Cook Mack, Juliana, Brenda, and a new jewelry artist, Siri. Siri is a gold and silver smith trained in Italy and you can preview a bit of her work in her etsy shop: Siri Jewelry

To entice you further, Juliana will be offering 10% off on the night of the show and Brenda will treat you to several door prizes!




Hope to see you there!
~Juliana and Brenda~

New Student Work

We have been wrapping up our fall classes
here at the studio, and we would like to leave you
with photos of some of our lovely student's latest work.

Wonderful stitched ornaments...




... and pendants galore!






Good work ladies!
All of our students have been wonderful,
and we have had a great time working with all of you!

We apologize to anyone who's work may not have
made it onto our blog... it's not because we didn't think it was fabulous,
it's just that we artist's sometimes have trouble
remembering details like taking pictures of finished work
before it goes out the door!
