The Nov 23 meeting will be a double header!               2 activities at one meeting !
 
First will be the annual earring exchange! —please give yourself time before Nov 18 to make your pair to give away !  
 
Here’s how we’ll hold it, in these COVID times:
 
  —For the members who want to participate —
  • Make a pair of earrings to give away before Nov 18.
  • Wrap them anonymously and take them to 8440 Burnet Rd, # 100A, Austin Bead Gallery, before Wed, Nov 18th.
  • Then, at the Nov 23 meeting, we get to ooh and ahh over the pretties as they’re opened and “stolen”. 
  • After they’re all opened and settled with their new owners, we then try to guess who made which pair. How well do you know your fellow members’ work?
2—A second super cool activity that we’ll be doing at the Nov 23 meeting, making   
Beaded Face Mask Earrings !!
             Cute and timely !!
