Art & Soul a Week in Review
I have just returned from Art & Soul in Portland, and all I can say is "WOW!". The ladies in my class were great. They all finished their charm bracelets and were as excited about wire as I am. No one burned themselves or their neighbors and for that I am truly thankful. It was an amazing event and I even managed to sneak in a few painting classes while I was there. 
Please note that one should not bend over and work as I am doing here at the hotel. It is best to be standing up and working on a higher work table.
I also want to "THANK" Edina for helping me with vendor night. I really thought it would be a slow event for me...but boy was I wrong! Thanks to anyone that stopped by and took a peak at my work. I also really enjoyed meeting some of my blog visitors!!! It is so nice to put a face with a name.
I am still walking around my house in a haze. I always have a hard time getting back to real life when I return from a retreat. Perhaps it is my minds way of trying to absorb all the information obtained in a short period of time. My mind was on constant over-drive while I was there, and I think it just needs a little time to adjust to my typical schedule of getting up making lunches and working through my list of things to do. I am not sure when I will begin the unpacking of art supplies, but I do hope to share with you some of the treasures I purchased from some very talented artists soon.

Hi Lisa,
It was great to finally meet you too - I'd heard about you for the past couple years from other Washingtonians. I wish I could have gotten by your booth too - I didn't get around nearly enough.
I do have an etsy shop, there is a link on my blog. It's only got one item left in it; i'll be putting some more in it in the next couple weeks as time allows. I certainly understand the "walking around in a haze" feeling, it takes awhile for things to feel normal again.
Your charm bracelet class sounds like it was a lot of fun!
it was so good to see you again! hope you'll be teaching again next october. your jewelry is so gorgeous! have you finished your fabric book? ;)
CONGRATS!!!! Looks like so much fun!!!! and you look as cute and darling as ever!!! Glad it went so well!!! :)
oh, you seem to have had a really good time! :-)
What an amazing class Lisa! It was my first art retreat EVER and your class has inspired me in so many ways. Can't wait to take another class!
