Day 1 Afternoon Demo with Kelly Russell

Learn a fascinating hollow bead technique from Kelly Russel. Believe it or not, these beads start with baked clay and are a wonderful way to use up odds and ends of veneer sheets made in other classes and from projects. Supplies list forthcoming.

Kelly works in metal clay, metal, polymer and more. Her demo at our last Claybor Day Retreat was fantastic!
