The luck of the Irish is with us! Come celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day with Lynne Merchant. It has been several years since Lynne came to teach for us, and she has not returned to the teaching circuit, but she but she is coming and bringing her fabulous jewelry! She has spent the last couple of years designing and has wonderful new bracelets, necklaces, earrings and rings. The current interest in wire was started by Lynne and you see much of her influence in much of the wire jewelry being made today. Many of you have been asking when she would be returning and we are thrilled to tell you she is coming!

For those of you who are relatively new to BEADS & BEYOND, Lynne used to teach for us and has taken several years off for health reasons. You can find her work included in the new book Beadazzled: Where Beads & Inspiration Meet by Penelope Diamanti and in Designs in Wire by Barbara McGuire. She is the award winner for Metal classification in the Beadazzled book.

Be sure to mark these dates on your calendar – you won’t want to miss it!
