Aileen's space

Well, here it is October - where did the summer go?  I just completed a jewellery show and would like to thank all who attended.  It was a fun afternoon and I know some of you have started your Christmas shopping!  How time flies.  The next show on the horizon is the Aurora Borealis Fall Sale.  It is on Saturday, November 28, 2009 and will be held at the St. Andrew's Centre (12810 - 111 Avenue) from 10 am to 4 pm.  We should have 15 to 20 vendors present so there should be lots to see.  I know the show is sometimes overwhelming for first-time visitors.  It is truly amazing to see everyone's creations. 

 

Hello all.  Last Saturday (July 11/09) as market day.  Although it started out dull and grey we finished with sunshine and great traffic.  It's wonderful to see so many people at the market enjoying the outdoors!.  I've traded one of my market dates with a fellow enthusiast.  The date is changed from September 12th to September 26th.  So, I'll be there are:  August 8, August 22 and September 26th.   Enjoy your summer!

The Aurora Borealis Fireflies will be participating in the 104 Street Market in downtown Edmonton every Saturday between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm from May 16 to October 10, 2009.  I will be present at the market on the following days:  June 20, July 11, August 8, August 22 and September 12.  For further information regarding the market visit their website at http://citymarket.ca.  Hope to see you there!  For anyone that was at the Gold Bar Market and wants to see my "fishbowl" go the the fused photo album - there's one picture there.

At least - they're claiming it's here.  I have been busy - taking classes and making new beads.  I will be at the Goldbar Spring Craft Fair on May 9, 2009. Goldbar Hall is at 4620 - 105 Avenue here in Edmonton.  The fair starts at 10:00 am.  Enjoy the spring!

I finally managed to acquire additional photos of recent work.  You can look at these in Jewellery 2009, a couple of necklaces in Jewellery, one new class bead and a photo in bead animals.  Unfortunately, they're at the end of the albums - you can go backwards from the beginning and see them that way.  Hope you like what you see.

Already almost one month into the new year - where does the time go?  I took another class last week - Sherry Bellamy from Vancouver.  I only managed one of the three days but it was awesome.  I will try to add a picture of those beads in the next couple of days.

The all the people who came and enjoyed the show - Thanks!  It was a great success, but I - for one - am glad it's over!  I've updated my photos as requested - hope you enjoy the pictures.  Tomorrow I get to go out to the studio and play!  Whoo-hoo!
