Default Spring Workshop E-book by Heather Sellers - Contains 14 Mini Tutorials

Now available for instant download on ETSY:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/18614520..._home_active_1

[IMG][/IMG]

The E-book is a compilation of 14 Spring Designs taught in my workshop at M.A.C. Included in this booklet are step-by-step complete TEXT instructions for intermediate to advanced flameworkers, 1 high-quality color photograph of each completed focal, a sketch booklet containing of each design in a 5-step progression, and helpful tips.

Why a printable sketch packet?

First, the packet illustrates the bead detail from start to finish. I wanted to give the reader a look into my world of glass design. I’m hoping the illustrations will help the reader become more adventurous and think outside the box. I suggest purchasing a set of colored pencils to experiment with the endless color options.

Second, I wanted to create an inexpensive booklet which includes a multitude of tutorials for intermediate to advanced students, who are unable to travel for classes/workshops. I didn’t want to waste readers time with instructions on “how to” create a simple round bead or press a lentil. I hope the innovative tutorial sketch concept is embraced by readers.

Designs included in the Booklet: Salty the Snail, Bunny, Mushroom, Ladybug, Flower Child, Sculptural Rose, Carrot, Daisy Bloom, Bunny Face, Duck, Robin's Nest, Spring Chick, Leprechaun, and Dottie Spring Pastels.

The E-book is in PDF format, available via ETSY. It consists of 2 downloadable files which total 25 pages long. The booklet contains over 22 high-quality color photographs, and over 130 "how to" progression bead sketches (5 sketches per design). The total file size is 2.42MB.

Focus audience: Intermediate to Advanced Flameworkers with working knowledge of the torch. The E-book does NOT contain basic beadmaking techniques or step-by-step photography.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

All the best,
Heather

Those designs would make great candidates for Beads of Courage for the kids...

Thank you for the lovely compliments! The kiddos in my own life play a huge part in my inspiration process. Agreed, the bead designs would translate perfectly for Beads of Courage. Many of my beads from studio demos are donated to BoC and I'm currently working on a project for the BoC Artist Challenge 2014. It is a definite passion of mine having a son born with a heart defect 11 years ago. Love giving back through volunteering and donations to their wonderful organization!
