I melted my first glass rod in June 2007, set off the fire alarm and was evicted to the garden shed! I have been smitten with bead making ever since. In April 2008 I had the privilege of taking classes with Sally Carver and Diana East. In July 2009 I took a  residentual master class with Dora Schubert at beautiful West Dean. In April 2010 I was fortunate enought to spend time learning with Andrea Guarino on her "reavealing the unexpected" master class.
