Manda Muddimer in Austin, TX March 21-24, 2014
 

We are really excited to have Manda Muddimer of Mangobeads coming to Blue Moon Glassworks from the UK to teach her wonderful techniques for
making her Sundial and Harlequin Cabochons.

The techniques used in constructing both these cabochons rely heavily on
heat control in order to maintain control of the glass and the design
application. Both designs demonstrate confident use of the torch as a tools for effective heat management - the key to successful Cabochons.

Manda will share with you a technique she has discovered that will enable
you to easily alter and perfect both the Sundial and Harlequin designs making it very difficult to 'go wrong' with raking, encasing and manipulation of the glass. You will be left wondering how you managed without it and will be able to apply all the knowledge you have learnt in constructing your cabochons to many areas of your bead making. Manda will then demonstrate for you how to clean up your work and make simple
and effective pendants from the finished cabochons.

2-day classes on Friday/Saturday and Sunday/Monday
Lunch will be provided.
Tuition: $450

March 21-22 and 23-14, 2014
