Boro basics... Volume #1 DVD - PREORDER your copy at a discounted price...
 
Plus you'll get in line to be the first ones shipped when they come in! :D




Here are the three finished pendants I demoed in the DVD... Can't wait to get into more complex stuff... but I had to start here and build as we go along. That way everybody can join in the boro fun!

I cover all of the off mandrel basics in this video tutorial. It's going to be in DVD format and I will ship as soon as I get them from the duplicator.

I'm offering a great PRE-order deal... instead of $49.95, it's $40 with $2 US shipping and $4 international shipping.

I can't wait to get mine :)

As an added incentive, I will also ad a little something extra in two of the first 100 packages... totally random give away. I'll do the drawing and announce who won here, after the first 100 are sold.

I'll get pictures of the giveaways up later... it'll be two of my best pendants. :D

I've never worked with boro before Brent, is this DVD right for me...?

Jenny

Mr. Smiley 2009-01-10 9:35am

Yes! It explains all the beginner stuff to get you started working boro off mandrel... I definitely started from the beginning and assumed people didn't know anything about how to do boro or off mandrel... It's a balance... it walks through the basics, but also includes enough that somebody who has done this before, won't be bored. ;)

doesdoes 2009-01-10 10:49am

Thanks Brent... I'm going to preorder this DVD... can't wait :biggrin:

Jenny

gayle janczarek 2009-01-10 12:26pm

But, you need to let us know what number has been ordered, so we can start getting excited! gayle (who already ordered)

Mr. Smiley 2009-01-10 12:54pm

27 preordered since last night. ;)

I'm so excited. I can't wait for people to see this and try the things I demo. It's my favorite part of teaching... and now I get to cause the "I GOT PINK!" excitement on a much larger scale. How cool is that? :D

bellavistaglass 2009-01-10 1:25pm

Aleigh 2009-01-10 1:33pm

Okay, I just ordered mine too! I am very excited and have been struggling with my boro colors! I can't wait for it to get here.

mandalinn 2009-01-10 1:57pm

Yeah just preordered mine......I am slowly starting to adore Boro and a video will be perfect for me. :)

Smurfy5 2009-01-10 2:21pm

This looks so cool... I just preordered mine too!

beybey 2009-01-10 4:36pm

Hey Mr. Brent,

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I can stop asking you as to when you plan on releasing. Now I'll just ask for when the other 4 will be released as I have already placed my pre-order for this one.

Thanks,

Candace

Hey Brent,

Just pre-ordered my copy of your dvd - really enjoyed your class at glassstock a couple of years ago. I've admired your work. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Teri

I just ordered mine. I am new to boro and have admired your work for a long time. I can't wait! :koolaid:

Ekkie 2009-01-11 12:28am

Brent, I keep trying to order and am told the form is incomplete or incorrect. But I'm not told which field is wrong. I'm guessing it's the international phone number but none of the combinations I tried work.

Help please!!!!

I'm not sure what's going on Jenn. I've had people order from all over the world on my website... what part are you getting stuck on?

If you want, PM me your PP address and I'll just send you an invoice. ;)

Mr. Smiley 2009-01-11 8:35am

Rose, Yunita and Barbara... thank you soooo much... :love:

Barbara. I'll be back some time this year. ;)

Mr. Smiley 2009-01-11 9:20am

Thanks for the message Rifie.

Ship that puppy to me!! Happpppppyyyyy Dance!


Duh what are Peter Tweezers and Handy Andys? I gotta make sure I got them so I'm ready to rock and roll when I get my little present to me!

Mr. Smiley 2009-01-12 10:30am

You can order Peter Tweezers from Arrow Springs and go to Andy's site www.galacticglass.net to get the Handy Andy's. They both do pretty much the same thing. One is a cheaper version and excellent for smaller holes... the Handy Andy's are built like a tank and are excellent for larger holes. They will also save you some time, because they make a hole all the way through. Peter tweezers just give you a guide. ;)

Afterdark 2009-01-12 10:37am

okay- I got the peter tweezers but will look into the handy Andy's- Thank you!!
