My First Blog Giveaway


At the recent Art Clay conference in Jersey I taught my Enamelled Accents workshop. I really enjoyed it and hopefully so did everyone who took it. I had people from all over Europe, South Africa and of course the UK on it. As it was only a 3 hour workshop it was a bit of a rush (to say the least!) but we got there in the end and everyone made really good pieces. I could not have managed without my good friend Lynne grinding enamels and overseeing the enamelling in the kilns. Thanks Lynne.
.
Anyway to celebrate the workshop going well and as I am in happy mood after my wins at the conference I thought I would have my first blog giveaway.
.
This Purple Heart pendant was a piece I made as an example of the technique of Enamelled Accents. It measures 23mm across is hanging on a dainty 16" sterling silver snake chain. The photo above shows you the front and the back of it and you can wear it either way round.
.
All you have to do is leave me a comment on this blog post. On Sunday 1st November I'll put the names in a hat and get hubby to draw one out and this lovely little pendant will be winging its way to the winner.
.
Everyone is welcome to enter no matter where you are in the world so tell your friends. Only one entry each though :)

    Hello Joy! This is to let you know that I had a great time during the conference in Jersey and that I enjoyed all the workshops I had the opportunity to attend. I particularly enjoyed the enameling class as you gave us the opportunity to learn so much. Thank you and Lynn very much! I have already started experimenting with colours and designs (as taught!!) and I am really excited.
