Just popped back in and WOW! I love the beads that have been posted, especially the sacred heart, beautiful. I'm glad to know that there is another event later in the year, I'm planning some time to tackle some of these requests.

Robert, is there a date for the celebration yet? (I work best with a deadline!)

Robert, Will the dream bead requests for Atlanta be put on the Artists on Call list as well?

Robert, you're right. This really does stretch your imagination and skills and is very satisfying. Where do we sign up for the celebration of courage beads? Or is that already on our Artist On Call list?

We'll be making beads starting pretty soon for the Celebration of Courage in Atlanta this Fall. I made over 40 for last year's event. Some of them were really challenging but we ended up with 155 very special beads made for the kids and we'll be needing a lot more this time around. I enjoyed stretching my imagination and skills to get the beads done. Getting that special bead to the child who dreamed it up is something really can't be described well here. Sign up and give it a go, you won't regret it.

The cards for the next Celebration of Courage haven't all been collected from the kids yet - I'm told that they'll be gathered up by next week. I believe that they will go into the On Call listing but I need to confirm this. I'll post a new thread to be sure that word gets around.

There was a bit of an overlap in posting of Dream Beads for this past event as I was out of town at Bead & Button and needed a fill-in who wasn't fully trained in the shopping cart how-tos.

I can guarantee that any duplicates will be well used!

Lori,
I'm still learning, but wondered if I could get on the list so I can see the beads and practice until I can make some worthy of this project? Or would you rather I wait until I feel more confident that I can send some for sure?
